What territory is safe for you to fish in? What if the fog is so thick you can't see the bow?

Until now the only way to learn the ins and outs of lobstering was to work as “crew” (sternman) on a lobster boat. You now can watch it all take place, from the other side of the country. These pristine waters off Acadia National Park are home to some of the cleanest and most productive lobstering areas on the whole eastern seaboard.

Sustainability Videos are fishermen telling their own story, cause they know it best.
