There's
almost no regulation on them. You can't take egg bearing females.
We see them ocassionally on the bridge we dive during mini season. They'll be hanging upside down from the underside of the ledge where the Caribbean Spiny Lobster (P. Argus) are congregating. We catch them when we can, but they don't respond the same to a tickle stick, so you have to just grab them or net them when they're within reach.
We got jumped one year by FWC when a busybody on the dock where we stay reported us for taking shorts. When the officer saw what we had, he backed off.
Anyway, I don't want to derail this thread. Connor, where are your pics?
