Nice ling Loki. I was thinking about heading up your way to shrimp/fish tomorrow. What happened to your pot? Not enough weight?

The pot was one of the large ones and had 12 or so pounds of diving lead in it.  Another with 15 pounds still dragged 2/3 of a mile.  We dropped the last pot an hour before the predicted slack on the outgoing, all of our pots and some from other people, blew to the East.  If you loose a pot off the S eastish end of Lopez, check a line to the SE of Davidson rock, they often end up there.  If they miss that, they will sometimes end up on Lawson Reef even further east.  I can't figure out how we could have lost only one as the others were still near each other after drifting and there was no chop to hide the buoy.  This was my neighbor's pot that came along, so maybe a knot came loose or something and his buoy broke free?

Another hint for shrimpers, put your cell number on your pot, not your home number.  Luckily, a guy had someone at home yesterday that forwarded my message about where his two pots were.

Good to know have returned crab pots that way call the number and get them back to owner
