Of all the species Gloucester fishermen catch,lobsters command the big bucks. Boats of all sizes go for these prized crustations. Some vessels are fished by one sole lobsterman while others have more crew members. Weather can wreak havoc on boat and gear alike.A lobsterman's life is full of fishing and fixing. Here are a few of the lobster boats that fish out of Cape Ann.
Those are wonderful pictures, Jay, and thank you for the photo you contributed to the page I made about John Symonds --- it is a tribute to one deceased lobsterman from another: http://www.parlezmoipress.com/JohnSymonds.html
