Mark Ring caught this spotted lobster yesterday. We rarely get them. Probably 2-3 a year with this type of markings. Less often than a blue one or albino one. If anyone wants to come take a peek at it or photograph it I’ll leave it in the tank through the weekend. Bring the kids down, they love this kind of stuff and I’ll even throw in a demonstration on how you can tell the difference between a male and female lobster. You might even get to see a lobster boat get unloaded.
Video coming at 2PM

Good Morning Gloucester 
He’s scaring me, especially with those mean eyes and that giant claw.

Does he only have one claw and is it abnormally large?

He’s a cull and it’s not abnormally large, it’s teh angle from which it’s shot!

“”WOW”” , some pictures for sure . To think I grew up in Lanesville & lived at Lanescove with all the old timers that made a living catching Lobsters & I can’t remember seeing any like these pictures . Love this web site, keep up the great work .
