Shrimp!
We went out and set shrimp pots on Friday and went out today and pulled them.
Ended up with about 10lbs. of nice spot prawn tails. Delicious!

(from link above) | Cleaned out the freezer for bait, but probably used $150 worth of fuel to get to where we
set the pots.

Price of shrimp has continually increased NOB. If anyone has seen Red Lobster commercials on TV, up until recently, they really never advertised
lobster. But with the increase in the price of shrimp, all of a sudden, lobster is their game.

The reason for them marketing lobster is because for the last couple of years the price of lobster wholesale in Maine has been below $3 per lb.
