There is no standard sign; you'll have to make one up...presumably a combination of the sign for a crab and something that looks like a horseshoe.

Or just grab it and throw it in your game bag (fishing license required).

I have seen "crabs" signaled by raising both arms and making pincher movements with thumbs and cupped fingers. I guess that could mean Lobster on the east coast (of the US). The most common signal I have seen for west coast spiny lobster is to wave the index and middle fingers on your forehead simulating moving antenna.

Cheers, i thought about crab sign showed the shape of horseshoe already, perhaps next time ill pointed feet and crab sign; shoe + crab. Close enough.
