Post Age of lobster

Contact www.state.me.us/dmr/ Dept. of Marine Resources. Possibly boothbayharbor.com The biologists lab located there. I,m a commercial lobsterfisherman living eastern ME. Any lobster under 3.25 inches will be immediately released (across the carapace or back). Any lobster 5 inches or more will be immediately released. Any female lobster with a v-notch in the flipper second from the right will be immediately released. Any female berried(eggs) lobster is to be v-notched and released immediately. These lobsters are all considered breeders. Conservation measures set in place with the help fishermen, but only good to our state 3-mile limit. Twenty pound lobster ,take him or her down to the shore and let him or her go. Think of the lobsters they could create! Go get yourself a mess of chick lobsters, much better eating! It is possible to mount a lobster, but you can,t eat it. Take the lobster ,set on it an ant hill. Wait a month, the ants will have cleaned out. Cover the lobster with box, bucket ,whatever so a cat ,dog does not get it before you do. The product will turn color, pinkish. Pin down on a board, varnish or shellac. Will not look like a twelve point buck, but you will have it for a long time.
