The internet gave us an adequate overview of what we’d need to do to try to catch a lobster. We motored Exit Strategy to Green Cay and gathered our tools. Gloves-check! Tickle sticks-check! Net bag-check! Measurement method-check! We felt confident, but encumbered trying to swim with all that stuff. We went back to the exact spot where we found the mother lode just a few days ago. DRAT! Someone must have found our stash because the only lobsters we saw were about 1/3 the legal size we spotted on that first visit.
We moved on to anchor at Buck Island, a USVI National Park that is just east of Green Cay and just north of St. Croix. We needed time to regroup after our disappointing lobster hunting trip.
