The bay at night isn't bad once you get used to the dark but be well lit. Boaters aren't looking for you and if your light isn't bright someone might not see how close you really are. That and some people are coming in after a long day on the water and they are tired and probably stowing gear and not paying attention. I carry a super loud whistle and wear a head lamp besides the white light on the stern. I think a moving light catches peoples attention better

Is it worth trying to fight the boats for a spot on opening night, or is it best to wait a night or 2? This will be my first season pulling from a kayak. I’ve always pulled nets from boats.

Since we can't do in-store or on-location seminars this Spiny Lobster season, the ProStaff at Promar Nets has been uploading some instructional videos...

Check em out if your a newbie or you just need some tips...
