Soo, I spend some time in Greece every year. I've been enjoying freediving and catching the occational octopus, but want to get started with some more serious uv-fishing this summer.

Tonight I was thinking of what my future catches is could consist of and came to think of lobsters. I don't know much more about these creatures other than that they exist in the Med. and that they are delicious so I have a few questions regarding this and I hope someone can help me fill the gaps!

- Is slipper lobster the most common one in the Aegean?
- Which other kinds are good to catch?
- Is there any regulations regarding fishing lobster i.e. do I need some sort of permit?
- How is the "lobster season", what time of the year is the best time to catch 'em?
- When during the day/night is the best time to catch them?


I deeply appreciate all info, tips and tricks I can get.

Thanks guys!
