: Operation "Ocean c*ckroach" (10/8)
: Latimeria October 10, 2020, 11:42:36 AM
I was tired of seeing everyone's "Easy Limits" of bugs online and wanted some of my own.

Lot's of bugs.... Got over 100 and with that half were an 1/8" or less short.  Some might have been legals on other boats, but if the gauge can even remotely go over the shell even if it's snug, it a toss back... thus I might have thrown back "easy limits", but I wasn't taking any chances.

This pull for example only had 1 keeper in it, but they all looked the same exact size.

There were hundreds of sand dollars in the nets!

Caught 5 big sculpin along with and half dozen legal rock crab to go along with a half dozen legal lobster.  Ended the evening at 1:00am and everyone seemed to have limits except for this boat...
No matter, lobster and crab for dinner tonight!

Works for me Tom, kudos for being so careful.  I remember finding sand dollars on the beach as a kid, never knew they had hair on them
