Summary

Pathe synopsis: Cataching lobsters with a spring-loaded spear is the latest idea adopted by underwater fishermen, and it offers excellent sport in the warm seas of the West Indies. In these clear waters spectators can watch the hunt in progress and then picnic on fresh lobster in this ideal setting.
