Catalina Lobster
Hey SB,
So I've been fishing socal coast basically all my life but have not much experience with spearfishing/lobster. I will be spending a week at avalon when I come home for Christmas leave. Where would you guys recommend for lobster? I will on a hobie outback so I will have access to anywhere within 5 miles of Avalon. I will be scuba diving with my brother (advanced and rescue divers). Also, Kind of a random question but where is my best bet for cabs? how deep? |

Re: Catalina Lobster
Well the cabs are a lot different at the island. They're mostly golf carts.

OP; cabezon tend to be pretty shallow at Cat; look within the 3' to 15' depth. Not many cabs there to speak of. As to bugs close to Avalon; the east end quarry has lobster, and west of Avalon to the Hen rock area are some reefs which do hold bugs.

Re: Catalina Lobster
You can find them very shallow. I took a nice 10 pounder at Cat in maybe 7 feet of water. He was about 5 feet back in a crack.
