[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 4800580, member: 12952"] Thankfully I had spares. { other lobsterman friends who find illegal traps give them to me if they aren't going to use them } Many of the commercial fisherman had whole strings disappear ( anywhere from 10-15 traps tied along a single rope with a large buoy on each end ). New traps go for $65-100 a piece. You can tell who is fishing from illegal traps because licensed owners need to paint colors on their buoys with their assigned numbers burnt into them, along with other requirements while the illegals use just a plain white buoy. { one of the requirements is to show your buoy colors when hauling in your gear , which many small powerboats do not do } [/QUOTE]
