I'm a recreational lobster guy. I have 20 traps with a friend of mine. We share in pulling them. We also bait them and check them every few days. Last year was pretty good. I think we put our traps in around June 15th and took them out at the end of Nov. I think we gathered about 450 lobsters over that period. It was great! We did not sell any of them but we did have some great party's and made alot of new friends.
I put mine in about three weeks ago. I have not got a whole lot yet. It is pretty early for Lobsters based on their migration patterns. I think the real season starts late June early July. Go to the library and get "The Secret life of Lobsters" It is a great read and very informative. Let me know if you have any particular questions and I'm sure I can help you out...It is well worth it to have a freezer full of Lobster in the middle of winter!
