Price of lobster drops


Well, shortly after writing my last post, the price of lobster has dropped. The price has gone from $3 for soft shell, $4 for hard shell and $5 for selects (larger size lobsters) to just £3 for all of them. It's such a shame.

Some of the fishermen have been worried that they could end up in a situation where they have difficulty selling their catch at all. Most fishermen sell to a lobster dealer who will market their lobsters for them. I guess the demand is there with the dealers still and the catches are up so that helps things out.
