Long Point, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
\n(aka The Old Marineland)<\/p>\n
Dove With Nick<\/p>\n
In With: 3000 psi
\nOut With: 600 psi
\nMax depth: 40 feet
\nWaves: 1-3 feet
\nVisibility: 10 feet
\nWater Temperature: Cold
\nTotal Bottom Time: 45 minutes<\/p>\n
We met at 7:40 AM.<\/p>\n
Nobody except the security guards, who were guarding the movie set, were there.<\/p>\n
A few fishermen showed up as we were gearing up.<\/p>\n
We went off the cove.<\/p>\n
We had an experimental lobster hunting kit with us to study whether or not some urban legends about lobster hunting are true.<\/p>\n
If we were to catch a lobster using this kit, we would turn it lose and record our findings.<\/p>\n
We were determined to find the abandoned lobster trap.<\/p>\n
We ran across a few lobsters backed in to some crevices, but Nick had lost the peanut butter.<\/p>\n
What we were supposed to do with it, we weren’t sure.<\/p>\n
We concentrated our lobstering efforts in 35-40 feet of water slightly East off of Pigeon Shit cave.<\/p>\n
Nick came across a lobster and grabbed it freehand!<\/p>\n
It was legal size!<\/p>\n
Nick’s first legally caught lobster!<\/p>\n
The “second kelp bed” has long since disappeared.<\/p>\n
But, we did run across the lobster trap!<\/p>\n
It has become a corroded pile of rusted wire; it’s not usable.<\/p>\n
We exited with no problem; fins off, walked ashore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
