MAINE LOBSTER
Trap fishing started in Maine around 1850. Before that, they were mostly harvested by hand along the shore. As demand grew for lobster in the New York and Boston markets, smackmen were used to transport lobsters from Maine to these ports.The first lobster pound was founded in Vinalhaven in 1875. It was located in a deep tidal creek. The lobster pound made it easier to store lobster for longer periods of time. There the lobsters were kept in tanks with water passing freely through them.Today, Maine is the largest lobster-producing state in the United States. With current technology and transportation, it’s now possible to eat fresh Maine lobster all over the country.
