Westerly Lobster Report
















We left Pierpoint Landing and started with 2 tanks of live squid and headed to San Clemente Isl. for our day of fishing and on our way we looked to catch some mackeral for lobster bait but as usual when you want to catch mackral they are hard to find. Once at the island we started bass fishing. A few nice ones were caught but the lack of currant made fishing tough. We ended with some rockfish and all the junk fish went to the lobster bait box. Around 6pm we started to drop the 10 traps. After the last trap was dropped we would back to the first trap and pull it up to see what was caught. Caught a lot of lobsters but they were all short. around 10pm the navy ordered us away from the island so it was decided to go to Catalina Isl. and put in a few hours of lobster fishing there.





Here we got 4 leagles and released many shorts. This was a fun trip too bad the fishing was tough but thats fishing. We had good food from cook Marcy and Captian John kept moving the boat to find us fish and lobsters.
