Lobster Run

Seems the lobster craze has ran its course.  Fewer and fewer individuals trying their hand.  We went out last weekend, but even though the sky was sunny, the water was turned up and murky.  Could literally not see your hand 2 feet away from your face.

I did manage to loose a swim fin.  Still beyond me how or when it came off.  Oh well, patience and good eye site helped retrieve it as the ocean tends to spit out the things she doesn't like.

Seaside restaurants and markets have purchased their share of the spiny crustaceans and for the right price you can still enjoy what the coast has to offer.

Lobster Season

Fall is upon the coast, and along with that comes lobster season.  Buoy floats identifying the traps dot the horizon around the kelp beds.

Yesterday I saw not less than 5 people snorkeling out to try their luck in grabbing the crustaceans by hand.  None appeared to be successful.  Although it could certainly be argued just being in the water is victory enough.
