Back diving in Florida during Family Day weekend visit to my parents. First time diving with GoPro. Wore the head strap. Sadly, I forgot to turn on camera for the large lobster I caught quite easily. Did get some footage but it was the best. Hopefully better next time. Had bought a reel to use but it was a disaster, went down 10 feet and the string got stuck. Terrible. Went back to using Scubatyme's reel. Caught one large lobster.

Second dive was much better on this trip since I didn't have to bother with the line. Got some video of catch lobster but not with the noose. Also, right when I got in the water my air transmitter stopped working so I had no idea of my air during the dive. Thankfully it was never too deep so wasn't too much of an issue. Caught three lobsters. One pretty big and two fairly small.

Second of two dive days in Florida. Got a new battery in my wireless transmitter so that was ok. Was supposed to dive the Captain Dan wreck first but the current there was too strong so we ended up going to a reef instead. I caught a small and very pregnant lobster early in this dive but released it. Was wearing the head strap again for the GoPro but it really isn't a good way to capture footage.

Second dive was another reef. Caught a slipper lobster which is quite rare. Noticed something on the reef that didn't look the same as the coral so after I tapped it a couple of times with my snare it moved. I managed to snare it and kept it. Apparently there is no size limit on them as they are considered invasive.
