Lobster Survey - Day Before MiniSeason
Переглядів 263Місяць тому
A special miniseason lobster hunt begins in twelve hours. Are there enough bugs to justify such an early season harvest? The team checks a reef 200 yards offshore and in only 12' of water. How many lobsters can they spot in 5 minutes?

It is the day before a bonus mini-season lobster hunt. Are there enough bugs on the reef to justify a hunt? You won't believe what the team found under just about every rock and ledge.

The team dove one of their favorite reefs on a glorious mid-Spring day. They found themselves surrounded by lively coral heads atop a reef mound that defied description just off the beach. You will have to see it to believe it.

Not much is sweeter than a night dive in velvety soft seas. While the current this dive was a lot more than expected, the team still had a blast with creatures of the dark that seemed to welcome them to the reef after-hours.

You got a sub look forward to your videos
That looks like tons of fun.
I don't understand why they have two seasons for these creatures. are they a nuisance species that they want to limit? Are they commercially harvested too? With all the videos I see of people catching them I'm surprised there are any left at all.
Looks like a good number, but I have no comparison.
nice
Trying to buy product but cant find it nowhere, only information found was a Court order dissolution for company but no other info than that got a better product recommendation???
Very nice 👍❤
nice job
God's underwater handiwork is glorious!
As a teenager bored by the white sand beach, I snorkelled off a golf course in the Dominican Republic and got stung by fire coral as I reached to pick up a golf-ball. It was mind-numbingly painful! I looked for blood and saw none, and it wasn't until I collected myself and got my breathing under control that I realized almost EVERYTHING around me was covered with fire coral. It was a very shallow area with one narrow channel to the beach and I was an idiot for snorkelling there. I made it back to the beach and could not believe the pain. I'd been stung on one spot on my hand and on my forearm as well. As I climbed up the cliff and then walked across the golf course, I could feel a stiff and throbbing sensation creeping up my arm. My whole arm and shoulder became somewhat stiff and I could feel it reach my neck and chest by the time I got back to the villa. I was too young and stupid to know what to do, so I just rinsed off and lay down to rest. The pain lasted hours. After 8 months I still had a small scar in both places. I don't recommend diving or snorkeling with exposed/bare skin - anywhere.
I got stung by fire coral in Egypt when I was 15, it was by far the most painful experience of my life! It must have been potent because my arm went floppy, felt like a bunsen burner flame being held to my arm.. Yet a simple ant and wasp sting pen stopped the pain instantly.. To great relief! Still have a mark on my arm over 20 years later
Looking good. I was there diving on June 6th for 3 days.
Yeah….. keep in mind I’m from a major metropolitan city at this point in my life. I went snorkeling with some friends in Islamorada the very next day after Katrina.. Considering everything under water was covered in silt after the storm I didn’t know what I was touching. Unfortunately I picked up some fire coral thinking “how nice a souvenir “ By the second my hands touched the air it was exactly like pouring muriatic acid in the palms of my hands . I ran into a seafood buffet into the bathroom to wash my hands….. Yeah….. that was like pouring kerosene on to a full blazing fire….. Now I fly back to the city with about 30 million nematocysts in my hands… Week and a half later I lose all the skin in my palms and some fingertips. Couldn’t turn on a light nor lock the key to a door. Constantly in the bathroom at a seconds notice for up to 5 years until a dr. Put me in Imodium to the 10th power for several years. All this from picking up a piece of broken off fire coral under water. It will attack your central nervous system for years with heliobacter heilmanni for years to come.
I remember going to see my first dermatologist about it and she looked for hours in books about it….. she comes back to me and says “my best advice is to get back on a red eye to the keys and go see a doctor there who is more familiar with this”….
Sorry to see the results of the stupidity of the local elected officials.
Nice one mate fullsupport here new friend
Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing! This is were I got my scuba cert! ;-)
Why do you guys have equipment dangling on the reef
❤
I recently discovered your channel. I was wondering what happened. Praise God your are better and able to resume diving. Great videos and all the best. Jim
I appreciate anyone who appreciates the erojacks.
I got smashed in Bali awhile ago. It was painful.
Uncle, Aubrey really enjoyed this tasty looking parade. 😋
I hope we can share a live viewing sometime.
My cousin, Kenneth ,is a c0 founder of FogKicker. I had no idea this field test was done.
That jellyfish looks scary. Are they common around those erojacks area? Was thinking to snorkel there but now have second thoughts!
I thought spearfishing was allowed here?
❤
Thanks for sharing! We went there this afternoon (without our scuba gear), since we like to check out these locations first before diving them; your video is spot on - Thanks again!! Side-note: we did notice that the jacks on the beach were visible again/sticking up out of the sand. Can divers safely assume that these are in line with the jacks that are underwater?
Those Jack's were placed by those who installed the artificial reef. They are a reliable indicator of the location.
@@BeachDiver thanks 👍
Great Video.. Thanks for sharing
Great Video... Thanks for sharing
Thank you Tom always an open book i hope to dive again with you!
It was an amazing dive, thanks to Tom and all who participated. The launch site is out of the way but worth it. #blu3
Based on your experience, what location on the SE Florida coast (Miami to Palm Beach) has the best visibility on average?
What is the song used? Fantastic video, I can't wait to get back to LBTS.
Beautiful! The calm before the storm dive?
I had a great time with my #blu3 Nomad and Paddleboard. Thanks Tom and company 🤿
where is leatherback reef?
Just south of Port Everglades in Dania Beach, FL.
Excellent, thank you!!!
Awesome. Thank you.
Very helpful. Thanks!
It’s sad to see so much sand covering the coral. I hope the govt does not initiate another sand replenishment program like they did several years ago! That was a pointless exercise, and clearly damaging to the environment. Great video. Thanks for sharing
Unfortunately the current will just keep moving that sand north over the years
Hello really enjoy your channel and it’s content. Quick question how far out do you normally head out on your beach dives?
Good video.
Great video!!
Great vis on the reef, especially since it looked like you were standing in a cup of coffee at the start! Thanks, Tom!!
Do you have a dive schedule that could check online? thanks
Great and peaceful video I wish it was that calm and clear when I was there
Its burning on the first touch and cool down in a week and now already inflamed😭
Awesome diving and viz. Question, directions to this beach and dive?
