Lobstering is tough physical work. Plus I was a guest on the boat so I didn't work as hard as everyone else did...I just slowed them down
The industry here in Maine is pretty bad right now. You can buy lobsters off of the boat for about 2.50 a pound, wholesale for about 4.25. At one time this summer/fall it was less expensive to have lobster for dinner than beef!
Too bad I cannot ship some soft shell lobster out to you, they wouldn't survive. Less meat but much sweeter taste imho. Perhaps you'll come out this way during lobster season next year!
