when i first started free diving 30 years ago, i use to pick up a lobster on almost every dive. but now, i haven’t seen a lobster in many years here on Oahu. the reason is because of over harvesting. i use to see guys bringing in female lobsters with eggs. that is bad. and i use to also see guys bringing in lobsters when it’s off season. that part, i can’t blame them because not too many people know when lobster season is. so, i want to educate you guys. if there is a month with the letter “R” in it, that means it’s lobster season and you can pick up lobsters. if there is no letter “R” in the month, it’s illegal. this one i got had no eggs, and i picked it up in NovembeR. that means it’s totally legal! and it was totally delicious too! remember the letter “R” ok!
