After a 30 minute ride to our next spot, I submerged, determined to get six more lobsters.<\/p>\n
This secret spot is actually a disintegrated ship wreck – there’s a lot of structure for bugs to hide in.<\/p>\n
I trolled the bottom near the anchor line while I debated whether to go shallower or deeper; since I planned for a 70 foot dive, I decided to go shallower.<\/p>\n
I saw two antennas sticking out of some kelp… I grabbed for the kelp and my hand hit it along with the rotting steel plate that was hiding under it; the bug got away.<\/p>\n
After trolling for a little bit more, I grabbed for a lobster hiding in a hole but only got the base of one of his antennas; they usually just break off, but this one didn’t.<\/p>\n
After looking further into the hole, the lobster had no place to go; he was backed all the way in.<\/p>\n
With my other hand, I reached in, grabbed it’s ass, pulled it out and bagged it.<\/p>\n
I pinned and bagged another legal one before heading back to the boat.<\/p>\n
I surfaced and spotted a boat 100 yards away.<\/p>\n
I thought, “Shit, I submerged on the wreck at 70 feet and ascended from the wreck at 70 feet, how did the boat get all the was over there?”<\/p>\n
I turned my head to scout my back side and saw the Island Diver 15 yards away.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
My two bugs from this dive.<\/p>\n
Dan and Rick spent the dive retrieving an anchor, Mike C came up with two bugs.<\/p>\n

Mirek was the last one back with six bugs.<\/p>\n
The traditional debriefing started on the boat – beer and kettle corn.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I pose with my stash of three bugs for the night.<\/p>\n
The boat total for eight divers was 13 – this is a tough season.<\/p>\n
Debriefing continued in the parking lot until midnight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
