Default Question regarding boat in surf zone.

Larry,, you rascal. If I touched the trap I would have been shot or
arrested.

At least that is the way I understood it at the time. The lobster trap had
been dropped in the middle of the channel. Therefore, it was not in a legal
spot. But.. it is still against the law to disturb a lobster trap. And if
Mr Lobsterman sees you touching his trap you won't need the law because you
will have an ass full of whip ass .. if you know what I mean.

I only cut the line that was wrapped up to my prop.

Hey,, one thing though. In the summer when I cruise downeast, if I get
along side a lobster boat up one of the rivers, I will call over and see if
Mr Lobsterman will sell me a few of those little clawed morsels. On many
occasions I have purchased a few lobsters from the lobster boat. Yum..
talk about fresh lobster. And the price is usually pretty good.

I'm getting hungry for some right now.

@trndny05:

I cut that lobster pot line faster than you can say "in the
rough". I pulled the line up with a mooring pickup pole, pulled out my
knife, and cut away.


How many lobsters did you get?!
