Real lobster don't have claws. Oh, you mean the mushy, tasteless, cold
water variety. Yes, they can tear neoprene gloves, yes, they can break
skin. Break bones, well, maybe. Chop off bits? I'm not going to be the
one to test that one.

Dive season starts and ends?

I heard of this chick catching a 13 lb'r off Daytona and in the two handed
struggle got her thumb caught in its beak, loosing her nail and it looking

Whether she was able to bag the monster, dun'know
