New to the sport, any ideas on where to launch my kayak at Dana Point? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Nice bugs!

Baby Beach or boat launch.

I might go out of Dana tonight as long as I don't get stuck going to a work meeting today.

5 lobsters :lobster::lobster::lobster::lobster::lobster: and some veggies...boil for 60 minutes - pull out the shells and grab a spoon...:cheers1:

How I do it.
 

I think a great bisque starts with REAL lobster stock.

Killer stock:
- I separate the tails.
- Halve the head/bodies. Clean the guts. you will notice some tender meat that is attached, leave it!
- take a half... pull from the head to the carpace and tear off all the legs in a bunch.
- Cut the gills that are attached to the legs (discard gills)
- Brush the outside body/legs to remove "stuff"
- Body & legs into pot, cover w/ water to just cover lobster.
- add celery, carrots, onion, garlic, bay leaves, & salt to taste
- simmer not boil (you don't want to lose flavor via steam) for 40-60 minutes or so.
- Remove the cooked meat put into a bowl
OPTIONAL
- DON"T forget there is a lot of head meat in the antennae and legs if you want to go after it. From my 7 lobsters I yielded a 1/2 pound of "scrap" meat that I plan to use in the bisque.

FOR the bisque. I kind of wing it, many recipes will ask for chicken, fish or vegetable broths. Simply substitute with your lobster broth for a richer taste.
