PB Lobster 5.9990lbs - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

NICKWORN · 10-24-2019, 09:08 AM

Went out last Friday, conditions sucked as it was slack tide the majority of the night. I did however manage one and it was the one!

Puerto Nuevo style Lobster was on the menu. Used my Turkey Fryer for this dinosaur.

Nothing went to waste, legs so big they resembled king crab, super yummy as well!

You going out of SD Bay?

There looks to be a nice tide swing of 5.3' peaking at 6:58, so i suggest setting 30min or so before sunset, trust me!

Going out of Dondo. 2 hr drive thru rush hour traffic....can get on the water by 630 at the earliest.

Redondo max tide is 5.4' at 6:54pm, so you should be good i only show a slack tide of 30min and then the outgoing tide will start.

Question if i may, what size rope are you using, what spool tool do you use to keep the extra line neat and free of twists?

MITCHELL · 10-26-2019, 03:40 AM

That looks like one of these.... I use 3 /8 hollow poly braided rope you can also buy at home depot.

I use 3/8 cord, comes in the promar kit for flat hoops, wrapped around these extension cord holders. Works perfect for pinching up against the bouy, and dropping on any depth without fiddling with zip ties or knots.

I'm in the running, fingers crossed. I won the photo shoot last year, and know what swag they give to winners!
