That would make a lot of lobster rolls. 

Tristin Loescher was fishing for snapper in Bermuda when he accidentally reeled in a massive 14-pound spiny lobster, lovingly referred to as a sea monster.

Sanctuary Marine Bermuda, a fishing charter that operates out of Hamilton, Bermuda, shared photos and video of the massive lobster, which Loescher snagged over the weekend.

"Hurricane Nicole blew in some sea monsters," the post reads.

While the monster lobster would certainly feed plenty, the charter said that it released the lobster back into the ocean.

"After never seeing something that size before, I decided it was best for it to go back to the home he came from," Loescher told Inside Edition.

Unlike the Maine lobster, the spiny lobster lacks massive delicious claws, leaving the tail as the only edible part. 

Swim on, sea monster. Swim on.
