Why Mr. Lobster pot, why?

Nice report, sounds like there's additional obstacles. I gotta go down there again soon!

That sound kind of like a heart breaker. As bad as the lobster traps are out there, at least there are like less than 1/3 the number that where there last summer. Like Greg said I have gone up to the buoys when flylinning to untangle my braid because the mac has decided to go around and around and around. If you go to the buoy and look at the rope you can tell the direction and just unwind your braid around the float with your hands before it breaks or get the hook stuck in the rope. La Jolla is full of near catch stories, but eventually it comes. Keep trying and don't give up. Tight Lines

Grab the buoy and paddle it up current. By time you're straight over the trap there might be enough feet of extra rope to grab your stuff.

Next time I'm diving in...let me tell you this though pulling the rope on that heavy of a trap from a tarpon 160 is me easy task. We will most certainly get it next time man, and like I said I'm making sure I bring my goggles on all my trips now.

It was good seeing you out there. I got one last time so it was supposed to be your turn this time. Now you're owed two the next time we go out!

I lost a heavy fish out at Dana last Sunday to a lobster buoy. Got wrapped up on it and every time it made a run it dragged the buoy down with it. Finally popped the line.

Bummer about the fish.

Did you try pulling the buoy rope as sometimes there is enough slack in it to get to your fish?

See you out there soon.
