NCDF September club meeting: LOBSTER TALK! We’re stoked to have NCDF board member and lobster-obsessed diver, Betsy Bothell give our talk this month. Betsy likes to shoot fish, but even more than that, she loves to hunt lobster. She’ll talk about the regulations and share tips on setting up your gear, finding (and grabbing!) lobsters in the daytime, and staying safe all the while. We’ll also be talking about our next club comp - BIG BUG✌️! As always, club meetings are kid friendly and open to all. Hope to see you on at the NCDF 2026 lobster talk! •••Sept 10 •••7-9pm •••Pourhouse, Oceanside

Printing process for a large and beautiful white seabass shot by @tempisquito of @justgetwet_ . I got three prints that I really liked out of this one. Really couldn't have asked for a more beautiful fish. #gyotaku #fish
