Salmon heads for hoop nets

[Mahigeer]

Since there are no salmon in southern California per say, how does lobster get to eat and like the salmon head.

I guess it is the scent perhaps.

My go-to bait is bonito and mackerel. If I catch them, I vacuum pack them in summer for lobster season.

So far I had to buy lobster bait only once.

I have to think that lobsters being scavengers are opportunists and open to eat anything that meets their criteria of being edible.

I've used both salmon heads and macs and I didn't really see a difference in the catch ratio with either one. However, the best bait is the free bait
