Florida. That and how they work the openings up here. Too many dudes flooding the market at once.
The money is in diving on soft shells. But even that, with Maine...........it goes on and on and on aand on.
If only I had a sea scallop permit to sell. I'd be sitting pretty. Them things are worth BIG BUCKS. We'll hammer that fishery soon enough. But at least guys have made some good money the past four, five years. Talk about dull--you ain't making any money if your head is looking up. Keep that knife going boy. Keep that knife going. Advil is down below, keep popping 'em.

25 years ago retail steamers were around $.29 per pound, today they are $5.99 per pound at Hannafords.........something way wrong with this picture.
