This might be the first mini season in years I don't get out there. I have to work Wednesday and Thursday. Last year I dove at midnight after work, but dragged ass the next day. I've got too much going on right now to be tired at work. The other problem is, I'm in the treasure coast and my buddies are telling me there's only a fraction of the number of lobster we've had in years past. Anybody done any scouting? Anybody heading out on Wednesday?

I'm going the 7th-9th, but have never been before. I'm going with some folks that go yearly, but any tips on gear and technique would be appreciated.

Wait a week till the regular season starts. Much safer and less stressful.

Not so bad this year, crowds weren't to crazy, limited out in 30 minutes and shot some hogs, FWC not playing around this year, checked 3 times on the way in.

This. Quit doing the mini-season three years ago and now go when the regular season starts.

Wife and I limited out (30) with our 3 young daughters.  Free diving 6-8' water.  Would have liked to go again today, but my main diver/boat operator aside from myself (wife) was to worn out from yesterday to do it...

Not sure where you live at, but I live in Homestead, and we were hitting the holes in the hard bottom between Caezars and Broad creeks.

Nice catch. I dive that area as well. Mini season we went a little further out to stay away from the crowds but, when we came back in it didn't seem to busy this season.
