A good finish to the fishing week

Well Thanksgiving has come and gone. Julia Munsey's campaign for "lobster for Thanksgiving" got quite a bit of press, including an article from abc news. I haven't had any feedback yet as to if/what impact it's had on lobster sales but should get an update from my mother some time this week.

The finish of the week was mild - in the low 40s. As my mother said:

It seemed nice to have a warmer day with no wind. Dad and Nick fished in the morning and are finishing up with a shorter day today. Tuesday and Wed. were such windy rough days that they had to work it out that way.

My family usually try to fish the first of the week, finishing up and shipping out their lobsters towards the end of the week.  In the fall however, you have to work around the weather.  Let's hope this coming week will be easier for the fishermen.
