Lobster Anybody?

This 10 pounder was caught by Janet Folsom bare handed in 30 feet of water at the west end of the Cape Cod Canal.  Largest catch was 22 pounds, Janet had scuba dived since the early 1950′s when she met Yves Cousteau when he came to Miami to talk about his aqua lung.

This write can remember 85 years ago when he spent his summers at his parent’s cottage at York Harbor, Maine that he could go out on the beach at low tide and poke out lobsters by the dozens that were hiding in the crevices of the rocks. Those were the days.
