Oh god, this huge lobster is crazy big , its main claw is almost as big as my hand.

TWENTY POUND LOBSTER???

This is a twenty pound lobster that we saw at the Department of Marine Resources in Maine. The claws are about as big as my hands! The larger claw is the crusher claw, used to crush their prey. The other claw is called the ripper claw which they use to rip their food apart. This is the biggest lobster I've ever seen!!!!!!!

Half a dozen oysters from the seafood store, they only cost 1 dollar per shell, to be honest my first half dozen, had little flavor. By the time I ordered my other half dozen, it tasted salty and had a lot more flavor.

POTTS HARBOR!!

This is Potts Harbor, Maine, where lobster are caught! We met Jim, our lobsterman of the day! He told us about how lobstering works, and the bond between lobstermen! Seriously thinking about dropping out of school and being a lobsterman.

Mr. Weeks lobster boat, parked in Sandwich, Massachusetts. The boat was 38 feet long and operated by himself and his brother.

LOBSTER TRAP

Here is a typical lobster trap. It costs about $70 and it is comprised of two main areas. One is called the "kitchen" where the bait, usually of fish, is hung and the lobster can enter the trap to get some food. Then there is an area called the "bedroom". This is where the lobsters are trapped. The black rectangular shapes on the lobster traps allow the juvenile lobsters to escape the trap because they aren't legal for being caught and eaten.
