Maine lobstermen have a well-earned reputation for conscious stewardship of the lobster population. The long-term sustainability of the lobster fishery is a testament to members of the Maine Lobstermen’s Association and the New England Fishermen’s Stewardship Association, who are dedicated to passing the trade on to the next generation and preserving New England’s maritime identity.

No practice better speaks to our industry’s ethic of conservation than v-notching.
