And we were off, a few minutes ahead of our noon departure, and a couple of minutes behind the Gail Force.<br \/>\nNice having the bunks on the Triton, I grabbed one and slept most of the way to the island. The rock fishing wasn&#8217;t bad, mostly the typical smaller fish, but Captain Shane kept moving us around and we managed to get a few nicer ones. I brought some shrimp to try to get some sheephead, but I only caught little spotted rock fish on them, and finally got one decent sized red on squid. I decided to have Jeff cook up the rest of the shrimp in the galley. Good move!!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_476\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-476\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2788.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-476\" src=\"http:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2788-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"Bait\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2788-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2788-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-476\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bait&#8230; fixed!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Once we drifted closer to sunset the crew dropped the first set. I signed in as number 1 and Danny as 7. We fished while the nets soaked into gray light and then went to pull. I had a cheeseburger while we waited, finished in time for my first pull&#8230; Wow, was I getting weak? The net seemed really heavy. No wonder, my first one had 10 lobsters! 6 easily legal, 4 measured were all short. This was looking really good. Number 2 had 7 bugs, 3 legal&#8230; it went downhill from there. One or two legal in most nets the first round. Number 7 (Danny&#8217;s&#8230;.. ) was empty.<a href=\"http:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2797.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-479\" src=\"http:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2797-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"DSCN2797\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2797-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2797-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2777-e1489941093906.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-474\" src=\"http:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2777-e1489941093906-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"DSCN2777\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2777-e1489941093906-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2777-e1489941093906-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2777-e1489941093906.jpg 1704w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2779-e1489941118621.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-475\" src=\"http:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2779-e1489941118621-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"DSCN2779\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2779-e1489941118621-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2779-e1489941118621-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pamsharp-fishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSCN2779-e1489941118621.jpg 1704w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><br \/>\nThe nets were reset, we fished a bit more. There was not much biting in the dark. Second pull, my number one net had nothing, number 7 had two shorts. We didn&#8217;t get many at all in the second set, and by the time those were all up it was time to head in.<br \/>\nI didn&#8217;t get an exact count, I&#8217;d guess we ended up with around 35. Lots of fun, stiff this morning. Pulling nets in Long Beach harbor was a lot easier!!<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s a wrap for me on the lobster season!!
