This week’s episode of "Ask Leroy!” is all about the lobster trap. Last summer, Leroy had a lobster trap set up in our Discovery Wharf to show our visitors how a lobster trap works, what it’s made of, and the changes in the trap over the years he’s fished. As we continue our summer without being able to open the Discovery Wharf to the public, Leroy wanted to make sure anybody gets the chance to study the trap.
Have a question for Leroy? Call 224.58.LEROY (224.585.3769), leave your question on the voicemail, and his answer to your questions will be shared in an upcoming episode of "Ask Leroy!”

I am one of the many who grew up in Maine and now I've moved away for work. Hoping to come back one day if I can convince my warm weather wife;) . These have been an unusual time the last few months and, well, these videos have brought me so much joy and happiness. I grew up up in the county but also spent plenty of time down the coast. Leroy you remind me so much so many good folks who set a good example for me growing up. Thanks for doing these Thanks for sharing a little bit about the best part of the world the rest of the world. Thanks for the good Mainer humor and for just saying things as they are.

I feel the same as you. Moved away for work 25 plus years ago and am hoping to go back again some day. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

Yes and it’s the law to have runners too! Do to lobster claws sticking down through the bottom of the trap the runners keep the trap high enough so their claws don’t get damaged. Good video !

Very interesting. The thing that struck me was how much bigger these traps are than the ones that I'm used to seeing in Ireland and the UK

Leroy, do you miss the oak lathe traps? Which fished better, 4 ft oak or today's wire traps?

Where can I get rubber costed wire? Can the trap be made with the wire without a framework ? Do you have a fish trap also?

If you don't have a lobster license and get caught fishing lobster, you're going to get a very substantial fine.
