For the spiny Lobster lobster season in the Bahamas is August to March and with your cruising permit it’s legal to hunt them while free diving using a pole spear snare or with your hands and the tail has to be at least 6 in to keep them and at this
Point they’ve yet to catch any that were big enough to keep however cake did seem to attract a huge flock of birds come on K they’re not chck up here there’s no Lo I’m H in it’s just getting comfortable with the pressure right now we’re uh I’m
