Lobster anyone

Sunny, perfect
Got my first Lobster yesterday and he was delicious. He was big enough for two and it was quite a deal to get him. He was hiding under a coral shelf tucked up in a hole, took me three misses and then he decided he was leaving so I tried to grab him because my spear wasn't ready to shoot again, I almost had him and he twitched his tail and went back in the hole. After two more attempts and misses, he decided again (while I was catching my breath up on the surface) to leave and he was walking along the bottom (15 ft or so) I spotted him, took a deep breath and went down and speared him perfectly. The whole deal was about 20 minutes. That is a nine inch pan in the pic.
Today, I located two more and again, very deep in a hole and tried repeatedly but no luck. I had the Lobster King (Sherman from Nova Scotia off of Jennica Ann, try his luck and he tried twice then came up and said the lobster was to deep in the hole. Oh well, no lobster tonight but, tomorrow is another day.
