I overheard a table talking about lobster diving at breakfast this moring. I know you can do it South Florida, but is this a SoWal activity? If so, when and where? Are there rules or regulations?

I think you would have better luck dumpster diving.

yes we do have lobster and they are huge. my step dad use to go diving right off the savannah pavilion and he would bring in huge lobster. like the ones on the red lobster commercials. i can't tell you how far out he went but i think it was about 5 or 6 miles. there was some sort of reef maybe
call a dive shop they will tell you i'm sure

The Choctawhatchee Bay used to be filled with lobsters way back in the days gone by, but I haven't heard of any lobsters in the area, other than in the restaurants.

I can confirm this. They?re out there and they?re HUGE.
You just have to go out a ways and dive deep. JFUNN?s step dad?s diving buddy had one mounted and it?s on display in his office in Panama City.

rock shelves about 90ft and the dead coral at the bottom of the ditch off the oclub (if there's any left, that is) - yuuuummy!

I believe that lobsters breed in the Keys. Some of them swim north. Most don?t survive long enough to make it to our area, but those that do are GIANTS buy the time they get here.
