A Maine resident caught a rare cotton lobster for the second time three months ago near Cape Roser in Penobscot Bay. Four years ago, he caught one he donated to an aquarium in Connecticut.
There are very few opportunities to find cotton candy lobster, which are mostly found in Maine.
Omar caught the attention of social media after he was caught last summer near the Canadian island of Grand Mana, near the border with Maine, Canada.
Portland Scales restaurant met someone during the same season. According to reports, cotton candy lobsters may be the result of a genetic mutation or related to what they eat.
