Great news for out many lobster lovers; visitors and locals alike; your wait is over. Lobster Season officially opened today June 15th. A day very much anticipated by our many fishermen; saw fishermen up early in the morning racing out to lift their traps with the hope of bringing in the big catch.

Open season for lobsters in Belize is June 15 through February 15. Local resident Nestor Rivero informed The San Pedro Sun that this catch was much better than last year as they brought back more than 200 lbs of lobster tails today.

Ambergris Today Goes Lobster Fishing
[Linked Image]

We could not sit back and wait for the lobsters to come to us; we had to catch them for ourselves. With lobster season starting today, June 15, Perlita, Delsie and Gerry accompanied fisherman/tour guide Mario Graniel to his lobster shades to catch some lobster and get them ready them for the kitchen.

It has been quite some time that lobster has been out of season and out of our reach that we could barely hold on for the season to commence. So the gang left as early as 6:00a.m. from town and headed south of the island to an area between Ambergris Caye and Caye Caulker. There Mario Graniel has set up shades in shallow waters that have housed lobsters that have matured to adulthood for a few months now - ready for the reaping.

By the way, Mario did notice someone attempting to invade his lobster shades as he approached. Shame on those who steal from others, we say.

With Mario's instructions and demonstrations ... Click here for the rest of the story and lots and lots of great pictures
