Redondo Horseshoe Pier 10/22/2011

Met up John / Redkorn at Redondo for some Lobster hooping and fishing from about 4:30 P.M. till 1:00 A.M. No lobsters in the hoop, just one medium to large female spider crab, which I tossed back because I did not want to deal with cooking it and it is difficult to tell when female spider crabs have eggs. Fishing wise, got 30-40 small to large macs for winter bait using a sabiki tipped with mac and squid. Lost quite a few to the dang seals, but it was fun to watch them (light show because of the bio-luminescence). I did see quite a few poachers there with snag lines for lobsters, luckily I did not see them get anything except spider crabs...lucky for them because I would have confronted them and called Cal-Tip.
