Lobster Hunting

So yesterday was the inaugural day of Lobster Hunting for us. We went to town and got our licenses, our net, our "lobster prodder" (a 3 foot long stick), and our lobster head measuring device. With all this gear in tow, we went back out to the mooring field and started searching for the spiny devils.

We learned one very important thing during this exercise. Lobster hunting is HARD! We didn't actually see a lobster. In fact, all we did was lose the lobster measuring tool. The lobster measuring tool is bright flourescent green. If I can't find that thing in the water (and I know just where I dropped it), then I don't think I'm ever going to find a lobster (perfectly cam0uflaged for its surroundings)! Oh well, it'll keep us busy anyway.
