Early this morning at our #lobster company. I still get emotional when I hear this song from the Earl Foote Band. Once you live here you’ll understand how the ocean, the community and the people become a part of you. The place is magic.

grandbanksbp's avatarCape Ann Home

This Saturday our Family Field Day Fundraiser is back on August 13th!

We hope you can join us for a fun day with a bouncy house, live music, raffle prizes (Red Sox Tickets, Paddle Board Lessons, Cape Ann Marina Gift Certificate, Maritime Gloucester Membership and more!), games, face painting & more! All proceeds go to the Jimmy Fund. Come out and have a good time for a good cause!

Last year we held a fundraiser to show support for our teammate Calum in his fight against Wilms Tumor, a rare form of cancer that targets children. He has won his battle, and now we want to continue to help others like him.

Squirrels don’t get enough love In The Woodland Creature Realm

What’s not to love about a squirrel? Way better than rabbits that poop allover the place.

I say squirrel>rabbits all day every day and twice on Sundays.

Video: Mackerel Fishing Aboard The F/V Pretty Girl

Video from Captain Lou Williams

Lou is going to set lobster traps which means to me the lobsters will pick up dramatically. Lou always times it perfectly. He’s like the Nostradamus of fishermen. Certain fishermen are always chasing yesterday’s news and you know when they get set up for a certain fishery everyone should just haul in their gear and call it quits because everything will turn to shit. But not Lou. Lou is gold with his timing.
