There's a lot of rope involved in dropping a #lobster pot or 10 to the bottom. In #ropeless #fishing all that rope is stowed with the pot so as to leave "no vertical lines." (for my upcoming story on right #whale protection measures) (BTW: the crab went back in)
At the helm: lobsterman and retired science teacher Cpt. Dave C. Heading out to sea to check for #lobsters for upcoming story. Thanks to Guerry Beam award and @ijnr_connect

Thanks #NewEngland for great weather and @ijnr_connect for Guerry Beam Award - to make my #lobstering trip a success. We caught some good images for upcoming story on #ropeless gear for right #whale protection.
