Show Notes
Maines lobster catch plummeted to a decade-low, with a seventy-eight point eight million pound drop since 2021, due to warming ocean waters, inflation, and high costs. Despite steady hauls, fishermen reported unprofitable catches, while others experienced steadier trapping and better summer prices. The industry faces tough times ahead, with Southern New England stocks already depleted and Maines stocks at risk without changes. Lobster prices remain high, but calls for tighter rules face pushback from the industry.
