Reply to comment by Bywater in Maine Dem (Jared Golden) Has Some Words for Biden After He Ordered 200 Lobsters for an Event at the WH by otakugrey

There is no concern due to the regulations, which are in place for conservation efforts.

You’re a special kind of soap box warrior.

My families been fishing for over 100years. Lobster, scallops, shrimp, halibut, clams, periwinkles.

I know for a fact I understand the situation better than most, I lived it my entire life. It is in my blood.

if that is your attitude towards sustainable harvesting and ocean conservation i’d suggest you teach the next generation of your family a new skill.

I love all you SJW thinking I’m against conservation.

99% of lobsterman are more conservationist than you soapbox preachers.

We follow the rules, even when they are flawed, and voice our opposition against the flawed “models” scientists use.

I’m sorry but I’m not gonna be swayed by a nerd in Oklahoma who stares at a computer all day working for the feds and comes up with “lobster is overfished”. Boots on the ground experience says otherwise.

Are lobsters numbers going down, yes, due to the warming of the gulf of Maine. No rules or regulations will change that.
