That explains the $5/lb. drop from last year at this time.

East Coast Lobster has been on sale in the CA desert for $5/lb, for the last 3 weeks.

Last year it ran as low as $1/lb.

West Coast lobster is hard to find at reasonable taste or size.

Anybody know the actual mechanics of the market driving these low prices, or has Guido been busy in New Jersey providing more feed for East Coast Lobsters the last 6 months?

In Maine this summer, I got a dozen 1lb~1 1/4lb lobsters and 5 lbs of clams for $60

Dinner was Yummy!

Looks like the bottom dropped out for the bottom-feeders. Congress, are you paying attention?

While the wholesale price may be declining, I don’t expect to see price reductions for Lobster on the menu at my favorite restaurants...

LOBSTER TAILS ARE NOT FROM LOBSTERS

.... they are a type of crayfish, marketed as “lobster tail” ... but definitely not a true lobster.

Interesting. Halibut runs about $20.00 a pound in LA.

One reason is that Maine lobstermen are catching triple what they caught 20 years ago.

Very interesting! I’ll have to check at the grocery stores and the Super Walmart.

Lobster is overrated. Give me a Dungeness crab any day of the week.
