How about the conch? Those regulations seem a little more nebulous.

Conch closed season 2017-2018...Sept 1, 2017 - Apr 1, 2018. Conch season changes as required.

Yippee - I can get conch at least! Miss the lobster but shrimp and goat and chicken and snapper and crab (I hope) and patties and Devon House Rum Raisin and lots of stripes will fill my belly just fine.

What! No Coco or Banana Bread? No Festival, bammy or porridge? There’s plenty of good food so the lobsters are hardly missed.

Oh yeah! The coco bread from Out of Town bakery.... I even forgot my daily Jamaican breakfast ackee and saltfish. Made it Sun and will be enjoying the leftovers for breakfast this morning here in cloudy Chicago.
