Spiny Lobster

  1. Just one of the unusual catches while micro fishing. I have caught keeper Snapper fishing the cracks between rocks in the jetty and bulkheads. Pretty surprising when you set the hook in that dark abyss and have it feel like it is snagged, only to have the drag start screaming when it swims for open water!

    This Lobster felt like a crab or clump of seaweed. I was pretty surprised when I pulled it onto land. I was casting a size 16 Streamer hook, 1/8 ounce splitshot weight, piece of salted shrimp, out about 16’ to get to the wrasse weed bed in ~8’ of water in the inlet. I needed one more species to have a 10 species day. Never caught a wrasse that day…
