Post Anyone else do any lobstering?

Stayed at my buddies house on Ramrod Key during the 2 day mini season. We got our 5 person limit (30) in 4 hours on day 1 and 2 hours on day 2. We caught them freediving since we were finding them in 7-10 feet deep. My buddy put on a tank once just because we found a hole that was loaded and it was taking to long to weed out the shorts. I did manage to stick one lion fish.

looks like it would be fun. but the water we got over here on this side of the gulf is dirty and you can't see your hand in front of your face. Tell your budy to fly us all down there so we can try it :lol:

We got after them pretty good this year, but nothing like last year. Our first hole (Gulfside, Marathon) had 33 legals. After that it was a slow but steady pick; I think the next best hole had 9 legals. Last year we had holes with 35, 32, 28, 22. . .

The bugs this year were either at least 1/8" over legal size or 1/8" under. Hardly any "barely legals." Not as many lobster this year, either. Here's a video from 2012. It wasn't as good this year so I'm having a tough time getting motivated to do another video.

Pause it and let it load completely before playing in HD or it will be choppy.

On the upside we did shoot some really nice reds in 8' of water. Had a 24" and a 26" plus a bunch from 20-22".


22 and 24"





20 and 26"

I wish for once that people would post things in the proper forum.

Did someone say "barely legal" ? Now that is quite a website.

I did it back in the 90's in Southern California. It was a lot of fun. I don't remember the limit being very large though.
