Fearless diver gives 8-lb lobster the finger...

[Clutchcargo]

Shivers run down my spine seeing that. I don't think I'd be smiling though.

I hope he doesn't mind, but I've gotten quite the chuckles out it.
I especially like the pic of his finger and the big grin on his face!!!!!

I bet that dude is a character to hang out with

Are you guys gonna eat all those bugs? How much is enough even if the holes are full? Leave some for the next dive group!

No, we're going to hide in the woods and throw them at passing cars. :icorolley

How much is enough even if the holes are full? Leave some for the next dive group!

"Enough" is the legal limit of 12 per person per day here. In two days with five divers we took a whopping total of 24 bugs. Anything with eggs got put back (it's the law). I used seven tanks of 36 Nitrox for a total of eight dives in 90-95FSW. I caught over 30 lobster, only six of which had no eggs. So with less than one lobster per dive, I'm not exactly putting a hurtin' on them. However, if they were all legal you can bet your tickle stick I would have kept my 24. If the next dive group wants to work as hard as we did, they can get theirs too.

Don't knock a legal catch and please don't derail this thread, larrandall. Thanks.

Dang man, talk about hard core.... He should come down to Jupiter and meet one of the local dive Instructors, hopefully their fingers would be the only thing they'd have in common...

Rich with the end of his finger right before he threw it overboard.

Why didn't he wait to have it sewn back on?
