WHOPPING LOBSTER:

-

Hurricane Nicole brought more than wind and rain to Bermuda - and two fishermen are crediting the storm with bringing in an enormous 14-pound spiny lobster. Charter boat captain Matthew Jones said he and one of his workers, Tristan Loescher, were fishing off the shoreline the day after the storm blew through the island. Mr Jones said Mr Loescher thought he had a snapper on the line after it somehow got wrapped around a mooring. When Mr Loescher went in closer to investigat­e, he instead spotted the huge crustacean. Mr Jones said it is one of the biggest lobsters he has ever seen.
