Are you still averaging 1.5?  I've been pretty consistent at 1 per trap with 7 traps out.  I just got my hands on some more traps so I'll be fishing all ten traps after I check and set tomorrow.   I spliced some line and am going to give some deeper water a try.  They are at 45 and 65 feet right now.

It slowed down quick in August.  A lot of lobsters one shed away from keeper.  If things don't pick up I'll go deeper and rockier.  25-30' is usually just as good at 50+ so long as it is further from shore.

Pulling 10 traps every other day in the bay has resulted in mixed catches of rather large eggers over 5 pounds [al released ] and smaller females also all released and ,marked . My friend has some days when he only gets 7 or 8 keepers out of the mix, mostly all males His last pull resulted in 15 keepers for the first time this year. The average size are fairly good in the 1.5 to 2 pound range. When he gets an abundance I may get a couple for lunch . He is trying skate this year from New Bedford and they seem to be working very well so far along with his secret chumming bait he uses Peace and Prayers   The oxygen levels are staying good this year not unlike many pulls with half dead lobsters in them last year
