Good Karma 1-30

My buddy and I were half way geared up in the parking lot at Vero Beach when an elderly man approached us and said he recently had his knee replaced and wanted to know if we would like to make some money helping him change a flat tire. We said that wasn't necessary and would be glad to help him. An hour later we finally hit the water. No real plan, just floating with the current and letting fate bring us to the fishes. Well Karma had bigger plans. Not only did we land a cooler full of sheepies, but I just happened to stumble over a solitary rock pile where this bad boy was camping out. Six dives later he was out of the hole and stuffed into a laundry sack. No way I would have floated over that same random ledge if I didn't stop to help an old guy out. They say helping others is its own reward. But a 10lb lobster is nice too.

I wouldn't dream of dishonoring him by throwing those out- it would not just waste meat, but would deprive him the chance to inflict a few more wounds on my already bandaged hands.

With one that big, there's as much meat in the head as there is in the tail! Schweet! Karma for sure...
