Catch of the Day...
Just thought I'd share this photo with the readership, it was a lobster well over the legal measure and better yet... it came out of Trey Luckie's trap... back overboard for a continued long life...
That is one big bug. from the wide tail it looks like a female. did it have eggs or a notch?
ReplyDeleteThat's how I roll! Nothing but the big fish for me!!
ReplyDeleteWhat is the slot limit for them? I didn't realize they could be too big to keep...
ReplyDeleteThis is making me think lobsta' rolls for suppa' on a hot summers day in Maine!
ReplyDeleteSavage, big female, no eggs, and the tail not marked but did have some mutilation...
ReplyDeleteIan, anything in Maine over five inches become protected... other states do not safeguard the breeding population...
Trey, you just got crappy with the trap... I should have said it was Rabid's trap...
PBM, I just brought home 20 yesterday for our family to chew on... I have a hard job getting used to the taste of money...
Texwis, thought you'd like that picture...
