You can find instructions on the card. Before placing a hoop net into the water or entering the ocean to take spiny lobster, you must record the month, day, location, and gear code on the first available line on the card (14 CCR 29.91(b)). When you are done fishing at that location or when you are done fishing for the day, record the number of lobster(s) kept, then move to the next available line on the card. Use separate lines on the card for each location fished and each gear type used. CDFW's Huddle Hour Introduction to Lobster Fishing video provides an overview of using Spiny Lobster Report Cards.
