Between dat crystal, da heron, and da yayo it’s bad. I mean superbad n not in a funny way. Sad really.

It’s the absolute best part. The ocean is really swell too. Get it? 😄

Gas prices compared to where?

Probably noticed one or two when it came up an hour later per the clock no? Or every sun rise/ sunrise? Thank God for the 6 o’clock news! 🙌🏽

Every winter, without fail, 4WD/AWD vehicles are always the first vehicles I see in the ditch after/during the first snowstorm we get. Doesn’t matter how great your tires are when it comes to icy slick roads. How quickly thee forget. Slow down, save a life.

Amen

Holy moly! How long are we gonna pretend that COVID-19 is anything more than a strain of influenza? So tired of hearing about it and seeing the masked sheep everywhere. Granted it’s less but even one is one too many. Wish for growing brains… “Be afraid. Be very afraid.” So dumb.

Majority of them self inflicted too. It’s pretty bad up there.

Right…but they are out, bro. Waaaay out.

Right!?! 🤯 “It is ma’am!!! IT IS MA’AM!!!” *super deep voice (one might even go as far as saying a manly voice?) 🤷🏻‍♂️

Wait for what exactly..?

Amen to that. The alewives started about a month later so I’m hoping it’s just a late year. Good luck to ya. 👍🏼

I fish out of Prospect Harbor

We were @ $4.25/run 5.25/select up til Sunday when they dropped it 50 cents on us after that 3 day blow. Now we’re sittin at 3.75/4.75 respectively. Price is supposed to go the other way this time of year. Scary time for the lobster industry for sure.

Right. But you’re assuming lobsters are going extinct and have broken how many traps over the rail of a fishing vessel?

Buy some then. I’d tell ya what the boat price is, i.e. what we’re getting paid for catching them, but I don’t think you’d believe it. I sell them and I don’t even believe it but most definitely buy some lobster and support Maine lobstering. We’re a dying breed.

No, they weigh our catch. The lobsters in the traps I haul tell me what’s in the ocean. The majority of them are undersized and therefore go back over the rail along with the eggers. There’s no lack of lobster in the 200ish square miles we are allowed to fish (which isn’t even a thousandth of percent of the Gulf of Maine) let alone the rest of the ocean which covers 70% of the globe. You can’t imagine the vastness of the ocean. So I answered your question. My question to you is do you fish? If not then what makes you think you’ve got a clue what is going on in the northern Atlantic Ocean?

That must be why they dropped the price 50 cents on Sunday. Doesn’t jive with your crab not available argument. What is it you do for a living? Obviously you don’t fish.

There are noteworthy devices called scales that weigh the catch which is then portrayed on the receipt “slip” that the co-op gives you to keep track of what you’re selling. It’s a pen and paper thing which then goes into each’s records. Crazy right?

My thoughts exactly. I fish for them everyday we can get out and we catch em like no one’s business. More than 60% go back overboard cuz they’re too small and/or punch tails but we always do well.

Going extinct huh? What’re you basing that on? Most likely you’re just basing. Drugs are bad.
