lobster hooping

[Tekniks]

Just wanted an idea how people rig up their kayaks for hooping :lobster:. Hoping to do some of that this season. Anyone in the LA area setting anything up when the season opens? :cheers1:

Best investment is a Scotty pulley arm.

The holder for above should have a proper backing.

I personally will be in Catalina without kayak.
I would like to try it at the mainland with kayak, but have not done yet.

The add for me is a PVC hoop net rack to keep them organized and stable on my way in and out. I used 1/2 inch but think 3/4 would have been better. This unit is 3 seasons old broken and repaired 2x. Still works.

Those two PVC posts sit in the rear scupper holes of a hobie outback. Bungie cord holds in rack in place.

Happy hooping.

That pvc rack looks useful. I've been meaning to make one.

I tried the scotty puller thing and ended up just preferring to just pull without it.

I recommend you get cable organizer to wrap the rope for each trap. They are $1 and are very handy.
