75. Catch and Cook: Spiny Lobster Using ONLY SOLAR Power | Learning the Lines

Part of the cruising lifestyle that has always appealed to us is the ability to catch our own food. In this episode we go out searching for lobster that we can catch and cook for ourselves, using only the solar power we have aboard our fully electric sailboat. We had previously gone out to delta shoal for some spearfishing, but had not seen any lobster. We decided to return to this area, but check out other spots where we thought we were more likely to find lobster.
Spiny lobster like to hide under some form of cover, typically rocky ledges. When hunting for lobster in the keys, you are not allowed to spear them, instead you must use a “tickle stick” and net or grab them with a gloved hand to remove them from their hiding spot. Snares are also acceptable. This proves lobster to be a little challenging and definitely very fun to catch. This was at the end of lobster season in Florida, meaning most lobster that are of legal size have been caught by commercial fishermen using traps. Finding two legal size lobster this time of year was definitely an accomplishment for us.
Since we are spending a good amount of our time out in the sun, we try to be smart about sun protection. Jordan opts for covering up as much as possible. I typically use sunscreen though, I am looking at finding a good dive skin after spending too much time in the sun without reapplying (we initially planned on wearing wet suits, but it was plenty warm). Here is some information about sunscreen mentioned in this video:
