In the Bahamas: 1  you can only hunt lobster by free diving (breath holding using a snorkel only, no scuba tanks) and you can only use a Hawaiian Sling, a type of hand spear, to catch them, not a spear gun. (In most places we've visited in the Caribbean only the locals are permitted to hunt lobster.)
Anyway, once on the desired ocean ground; bait is placed inside of a trap to entice or attract lobster and catch the lobster. the traps are designed so the lobster can crawl in; but usually not crawl out. traps can be single gear (one trap) or a string or trawl of traps containing up to 20 traps tied together. Ballons or bouys on the surface of the water indicate where the traps are. These ballons are tied to the traps and anchors that hold them to the ocean floor. As mentioned; lobster fishing is hard work.
