- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ก.ค. 2020
- This is my lobstering 101 video which breaks down my techniques for catching lobster bare handed in different situations. I could taslk about diving for lobster for hours so don't heistate to ask questions. I hope this video helps people more effectively catch lobster while diving, and if you don’t lobster I hope you at least think it’s cool to watch! If you have any friends that lobster send this to them because I havent seen these techniques anywhere else! #lobster #clawlobster #mainelobster #rocklobster #lobsterdive #lobstercatch #underwatervideography #lobsterdiving #boston #massachusetts #2020 #flounder #fishingrecreation

AWESOME video, you make me want to try it myself! Very cool
Thanks a bunch man, you definitely should try! Don't hesitate to ask questions and please sub to see my video drops like the new lobster flounder freedive video i just posted! Peace!
It looks like so much fun!
It is, thanks! 🙌🦞
Amazing video and thank you.
Thanks a lot, i appreciate it!
Super informative! Thanks so much
Thanks man i appreciate the comment, thats what i aim for!
@@fishingrecreation6837 I had no idea that thete wete lobsters in shallow waters
@@John-lv1zq Oh ya man, definitely only in the summer around here but sometimes incredibly shallow!
I used to lobster dive in those areas before I moved to FL and was veey successful. I miss those days. The small lobster trick is new to me, great idea. I had a technique of withrawing my fingertipos from the mits, letting the lobster grab the rubber gove, then pulled him out. FL spiny lobsters are a whole different thing, no claws.
Ha ya I haven’t seen the small lobster trick anywhere either, nor have I heard or though of using a glove for them to grab, I will have to try that!!!
The first time I watched one of your videos and I really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to watching more of your videos. Keep up the good work.
Thanks a bunch I plan on making lots of videos this spring and summer! First dive of year in a few days!
Great video!!!!!!
Thanks!!!
Great video. Would love to see more videos like this in the Boston area
Thanks!
More to come!
Great vid
Thanks a bunch , I appreciate it!🙌
striper smells those lobsters you're carrying. I used to dive and lobster a lot - they're as smart as cats.
great video! where was this video filmed though? i live in nahant right ouside of boston.. these waters look a lot more clean and full of wildlife then where i live
Thanks man, most of the spots I go to are in Hull and Scituate mass, and there is a lot of life and decent water vis right off the coast in a lot of areas from here especially Marshfield is popular
Cohasset
Oh that's down at the lagoon on the castle side enjoy. See you there, I'll bring the butta!!!
LOL hopefully!
Same from there 😂
Any suggestions on how to get started? Live on the south shore and would like to find a shop/community to learn from.
I really don’t know many groups but the dive shop in marshfield does group trips and I’m sure there are face book groups as well, lmk if you have any questions I can help with and good luck
Where is this spot?
Let it go
To me, it looks like Mill River in Gloucester.
i bought lobster license but never even set a trap, i bought license again this year, and telling myself i need to get out there , or if you can show me the way to dive for lobster we can dive together, i'm and excellent swimmer but afraid to be in the water by myself. :D it's dark and big body of water out there
hey man you should definitely look into acquiring gear first because it is a substantial investment to get started because a nice cold water wetsuit can be quite expensive... but totally worth it!...
I see some people with what just looks like snorkel gear diving down between 5-15ft. I hear scuba diving can be expensive, my friend is interested in trying this, for discovery, is there any budget methods for casual summer diving? (I live in Nova Scotia, Canada, so would be around South Short or Northumberland Strait where water is warmer). thanks.
Hey, yes people can certainly casually recreationally harvest and fish in that depth as long as you you know basic dive safety well and have a good wetsuit and weight belt for cold water and you ensure all of your gear is correct, you can have a blast in plenty of places that are less than 15 ft! good luck!
@@fishingrecreation6837 Sounds good. How much would it roughly cost to get basic bear like this?
Robbie free diving , free diving mask, snorkel, 3mm booties/socks ,free diving fins, free diving open cell wet suit , free diving weight belt , weights, knife, lobster tickle stick.
I lived in New Bedford Mass and caught from 8 to 15 lobsters in about 2 hours every Saturday and sold all but 3 to the local fish stores for weekend gas money. The way you are going about it is not very productive. It is much easier than that if you understand what the natural instincts of crabs and lobsters are.
Take a 16 inch length of garden hose and two rolls of the non shiny electrical tape and wrap one end for about 4 inches wide at the end with a complete roll. Also wrap a single layer near the opposite end about a half inch high. That will help you so the hose doesn't slip out of your hand.
Lobsters and crabs, once they bite, will not let go as long as you keep pulling while they have a grip so simply put the fat end of the hose near them and as soon as they reach out and grab it, pull them up and keep waving them back and forth slowly as you open your bag, then just put them in the bag and stop moving, they will immediately release their grip and fall to the bottom of your bag...now go find another one.
This method never failed me for over 16 years so I know it works!
Well ernie thanks for the input, i would love to hear some more info on what you think i should be doing, as well as more info on what your favorite and most productive methods were? also how long ago was this because from what ive heard many areas have declined in productivity over the past decade...?
It is illegal to sell your lobsters on a non-commercial license. Freeze the meat or give them away. The commercial fishermen work hard and pay a lot in permits and expenses, you are stealing from them by selling your recreational catch. Give them to your friends, have a party but don't sell them.
Hi , can you telle where exactly is this place in south Boston ?it's so beautiful ❤️ how deep do you have to go down ?
HI, the closest spot you can get to her with parking is Nantasket beach in Hull MA, beautiful cliff and rocky beach area
@@fishingrecreation6837 and the depth ? It seems rather shallow which I found very surprising
@@John-lv1zq Hey sorry I'm just seeing this comment! sometimes surprisingly shallow like 10 ft at low tide but certainly more are out deep
Why no more recent videos
This is a beautiful spot. What is the beach/location called? I'd love to go check it out. Thanks!
Hey thanks for commenting, unfortunately the closest beach spot you can publicly park around here is Nantasket beach in Hull
@@fishingrecreation6837no way huh? I'm right near hull. Where in hull if you don't mind me asking? Is it all the way to the right near those condos?
I’m 14 and live in mass I have my scuba license and really love lobster how can I get started on catching them
Hey man, I’d suggest talking to you local dive shop because they definitely do group trips, or find a dive buddy to go with because having dive partner is a must!
@@fishingrecreation6837 ok thx
Wes ward
I dive for lobster like 20 minutes south of Boston if you ever want to link up man! My dive buddy just moved out of state
Oh ya man I would love to try to link up this spring or summer because finding someone to go with is the hard part sometimes!
You guys all shore dive or get out on the boat? I live in Seaport and always up for a dive if not down Capeside
@@travisre574 send me a text Travis. I dive anywhere I can
every free dive for lobster?
Hey, thanks for the comment, so I usually look for lobsters every dive but I sometimes go out with more intention to spearfish at spots that tend to be better for fishing.
Patten Cove?
No not patten Cove, I'm not sure where that is.
That's literally across the street from my house
Heck ya dude come on out 😂
Where is it
You claim this is "South Boston, MA" but that's nowhere in Southie. Where is this?
Ha tru, more so just south of Boston... its near Hull MA
imagine finding a 8 pounder
Ya those two big ones in my lobster life cycle vid were around 5 lbs and I couldn't believe how big they were!
Can we let the ocean animals recuperate? There’s plenty of humans ripe for the pickin’. But I’m serious. For both statements.
That is not southie lol
