🌟 Dave 'Dogga' Thompson

Dave Thompson senior, known as Dogga, began fishing for rock lobster at Cervantes in 1966 aboard Seatips. Subsequent generations continued the work, expanding from boats into processing and, eventually, the visitor experience known as the Lobster Shack. His son Dave led the family's acquisition of the local processing plant in 2008. Catching, handling and selling rock lobster created a family enterprise deeply connected with the town's fishing identity.
