Was out at the mouth of the Cap today, dropped the crab and prawn traps early and was fishing by 8:00AM. Had two or three hits, and then right at the marker I got smacked by this 20lb-er. The boats were pretty thick in there, so I punched the throttle and headed out to the shipping lane...

I am thinking of getting an anchor puller to lift up my prawn traps. Does anyone have any tips or tricks on doing this? I've heard of people tearing or even ripping their traps right off with this method and am trying to avoid this by doing it right. I am hoping I can use the same buoy that I...
