My View of Life on the Dock
I saw this picture in the link to Wary Meyers site on the Casco Bay Boaters Blog but once on the Wary Meyers site I could never find this actual full sized print.
Paulie Frontiero showed me the light yesterday- thanks Paulie.

Yesterday I was down at Capt. Joe’s. Hangin’ with Joey is always interesting.
His lobstermen yell up to his office through a window. Joey’s mail gets to the mailman by bucket. Ya just never know who’s coming it to bait up. So anyway, I’ll post a slideshow at noon today. Check it out!
A couple of days ago Dennis Silva, owner of the Topside Grill stopped by the dock to pick up his lobsters for the restaurant as he does daily. He gets them daily because he is a freak for freshness and quality and wants the freshest possible lobsters each day.
Anyway a couple of our lobstermen were offloading when Dennis showed up and I mentioned to them how Dennis has a lobster dinner on his menu for $13.99. It made the guys feel good that the guy that was buying the lobsters that they just sold me were going to a guy that was marketing them right.
A major beef with lobstermen is when places charge ridiculous prices for lobsters and make them unaffordable for the average person when in reality they aren’t that much money to put on a menu.

Check out Trevor Corson’s Secret Lives of Lobsters Blog.
Many of my fishermen love the book, and his blog details many issues dealing with lobsters including the great “Do lobsters feel pain?” debate. There are many entries to peruse and it is about as well laid out and jam packed a lobster blog as you’ll find.
