There's a major difference: *Coral heads are generally charted unless
you are boondocking, crab traps and lobster pots, never.

Hitting a coral head fast enough to hole your boat requires a great
deal of negligence, incredibly bad luck or both. *Anyone who has *not*
snagged a trap at one time or another has not really been there.


I snagged one with one of Shortpants lures last season.. Boy was he
****ed. I told him I was just pointing it out for him. He's getting up
there you know Uh, uh, I mean, he's tall, yeah, way up there...
That's what I said..
