Could this be due to all the divers or all the fishermen?

Well after recently diving St Abbs I noticed that Lobsters were everywhere. Lots of babies to. There is a volentary reserve there, but I noticed that the skippers do not allow divers to take sea life.

I believe that as dive sites become more popular, these popular dive sites can not sustain divers takeing lobsters, so now I leave them alone. Especially when they can take over 10 years to grow to a good size.

For me it comes down to that I enjoy seeing lobsters more than eating them.

On the other hand we dived the Kyarra last week which must be one of the most dived wrecks in the UK this side of the Stangarth and we saw 15? mayby 20 lobsters on it.
