Woman Catches World’s Biggest Lobster

This photo of Lizzy Sharp bravely holding what is probably the biggest lobster netted in British waters for 80 years is the only proof her fisherman husband has of his catch. Simon Sharp, 42, threw the creature, which measured more than 1m long, back into the sea after snapping it on his mobile phone. He did not want to risk its life by taking it to shore to be weighed and verified. Experts say its huge claws – said to measure 13 inches long and 6 inches wide – could take off a human hand. The Sharps were fishing when they noticed the female, believed to be more than 100 years old, caught up in their net off the coast of Dartmouth in Devon.” LINK
