WEST OCEAN CITY, Md. -  

  There's been a rare sighting in the waters near Ocean City: a blue lobster.
 
   The Daily Times of Salisbury reports that the lobster, named Toby, is staying in his own container in Martin Fish Co.'s lobster tank.
 
   He was caught Thursday by the crew of the Pot Luck fishing boat.
 
   Pot Luck owner John Guorley says he plans to donate Toby to the National Aquarium's Washington location, but that the lobster will stay in his tank until he's picked up.
