Can you use a bait trap to catch bait?
7-15-2011
CDFG
Question:
Is it against the law to use a small (12 inch by 24 inch) fish trap on the shoreline of Huntington Beach for the purpose of catching bait fish (smelt and anchovies)? I've seen a lot of fisherman using them but was told by a kayak shop that they are illegal to use and could result in a hefty fine.
Answer:
Using traps to take bait fish south of Point Conception (Santa Barbara County) is not allowed. Generally, hook and line or a dip net not greater than six feet in diameter are the only methods allowed to take fin fish in the ocean waters south of Point Conception (See CCR Title 14, sections 28.65 through 29.00).
