Got the day in yesterday while the rest of the fleet was tied up. Won’t get these days back in February when the lobsters stop running. Every day fishing this time of year equals 4 in the winter. sometimes more.

Well Hello There Mr Crazy Speckled Lobster
Dead Low
Welcome The Latest Lobster Boat To The Gloucester Fleet- Pete Libro’s Cabaret V
The Cabaret V Is a Beast. 47 feet long and beamy as a bastard. Big and roomy with plenty of deck space to shift gear and lobster like a lobster boat should- with the ability to move large numbers of lobster traps to areas where the lobster will be next.
On a small boat you are limited with the amount of gear you can shift and the weather you can fish. On the Cabaret V Pete and his dedicated crew can fish rough weather comfortably and chase the lobsters by moving large amounts of lobster traps in front of the lobster moves to the deeper water and off shore.
Congrats Pete.
Well Hello There Mr Crazy Speckled Lobster!

GLOUCESTER (CBS) – Hurricane Irene could cause major damage to homes and the economy in Gloucester.
Gloucester residents still talk about The Perfect Storm back in the 90′s, but no one is quite sure what Irene is going to bring.
People in the fishing industry and those who live along the water are preparing for the absolute worst.
“It’s certainly going to get rough, and that could impact the whole lobster industry, the gill netters, everyone. It’s not good for us at all,” said Tom Ring

Old Anchor Estimated From the 1800’s For Sale
Dave Jewell aboard the Lady J got this anchor snarled up with one of his lobster trawls. he brought it to the industrial boom over at the State fish pier where they hauled it off and now it sits at the top of our driveway here at Captain Joe and Sons. It stands about 6 feet tall and many people like to use them in front of a seafood restaurant or business. if you are interested in it, Dave is willing to sell it. Let me know.
