Seahunt,
What new fins were you trying out, ... were they split fins?
Also, being a newbie to lobster diving - I wanted to ask you about your grab technique. You mentioned that on your first legal at K2 that you needed to make the "perfect grab" -- grabbing the bug at the base of the antennae. Everything that I'd been told (to-date) has said to aim for the back of the bug, like you're grabbing the end of the tail - and by the time the bug begins to move, your hand will end-up right where it needs to be, on the carpace. So, if I'm a novice bug diver - and want to increase my capture success, should I aim for the back of the tail, or try to grab for the base of the antennae?
And I've never heard of the K2 site. Where is it in relation to Arrow Point, or Italian Gardens?
Thanks.
