Tonight I will be night diving for spiny lobster for the first time this year. And the first time since getting a pacemaker. Most people don’t know that the spiny lobster is actually better than New England lobster. They are rarely available locally, as most commercial catches go to China, with an average wholesale price of $60/pound. I just found out that Santa Barbara Fish market is selling some for $89 each. These are 1.25-1.5 pounds each. You try one at least once, perhaps for New Years dinner. Hopefully I catch some for dinner tomorrow, although so far, I will be eating NYE dinner alone at home. #lobster #diving #scuba #scubadiving #lobsterdiving #freediving #nightdiving #california (at Santa Monica, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJbekjhFbAm/?igshid=ovqrxk9vh4vn
