I'm gonna be on one of the Truth Aquatics 2-day trips in October, it'll be my first lobster hunt. I don't consider myself a natural hunter, and I'll be happy if I just get my hands on one once. Really excited for it, but I have a dumb question: I'd like to dive in a rental drysuit - but if I get into a clumsy struggle with a spiny lobster, could it damage the suit?

I personally would not use a dry suit. My buddies and myself all use wet suits when we lobster dive and usually it's our old ones if you're really hunting your going to be doing some digging around and you'll end up with some urchin spines or scuffs on your suit or you. Also bring some Kevlar Palm gloves you don't mind ruffing up. I usually bring my older gear so I'm not too bummed if it gets banged up a bit.
