6 Pack Trip with Redkorn (Lobster)

I copied and pasted the below from my friend Redkorn's report. Caught a ton of fish, no lobster.

We went out of SP for a short notice bug hunting trip. Met up with Burger around 5:28pm. Made our way down to the dock and put the gear away. Waiting on the others, Burger fished, While I was looking for bait fish around the dock.

With the lost, late along with a local motive bridge down. It took us about an hour to out of the bay. We started Test set's And fished.

Long story short. I took a 20min nap to wake up the plotting of which a magic marker would be use. Fishing was great!!! Hooping was bust, Mixed crabs, Seal stuck in net, No lobster.

Still fun, Sober fun since there was a 18 pack left alone.

Good times with random people and Burger. 

Here are the fishing details.

Bait-Bonito!!!

It worked so well that most didnt use other bait's.

It's back strap wroked best for the hook.
Stiff,oily and easy to cut.

Isthmus Cove Pier - Two Harbors, Catalina, CA 03-23-2012

Arrived at the Catalina Express Two Harbors port in Isthmus Cove at about 5:30 P.M.. After paying for our campsite and luggage delivery we made our way up to camp at around 6:30 P.M. to get camp set up. After getting set up we went down to the only restaurant in town the Harbor Reef Restaurant. After dinner we started fishing the Isthmus cove pier around 9:00 P.M. and fished till about 1:00 A.M.. My dad caught the first fish of the night, which was a 13" kelp bass. He also caught another small bass. I caught three jumbo mackerels. I forget if Hasheem or John caught anything...pictures below.

Malibu Pier 10/20/2011

Hit up Malibu pier today for a short session with my fishing buddy Brian (about 7:00 P.M. to 10:30 P.M.). Hooped for lobster and fished for bait with sabikis tipped with macs / squid. Nothing in the hoop, but caught probably 30 or so macs between the two of us for winter bait as well as a small bass and a few lizard fish. Brian also caught a small round stingray (could have been a thornback ray, didn't look that close). There was bait everywhere and the bioluminescence was crazy (it was like watching a fireworks show in the ocean). We thought for a while that we got locked in because they closed the gates, but luckily it was not locked.
