 Lobster-Cape Cod style
Therefore the lobster industry, as we know it today, did not become possible until the early nineteenth century with the development of lobster smacks, sailing vessels with seawater tanks in their hold.
As lobstering became a tireless and full-fledged New England industry, regulations were similarly enacted to restrict the size and season of the catch, and populations for the last century have remained remarkably stable.
Lobsters in the wild are every bit as pugnacious as they look and are notoriously cannibalistic, so Bergquist neutralizes the larger ‘crusher’ claw and the smaller ‘ripper’ claw with tight rubber bands.

 Escapement of the Cape rock lobster through the mesh and entrance of commercial traps Fishery Bulletin - Find Articles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Escapement, based on lobster morphometric measurements, through meshes of 62 mm, 75 mm, and 100 mm was investigated theoretically under controlled conditions in an aquarium, and during field trials.
The lobster length at 50c2 retention ([L.sub.50]) on the escapement curve for 100-mm mesh in the aquarium (75.5 mm CL) approximated the minimum legal size (75 mm CL); however estimates of [L.sub.50] increased to 77.4 mm in field trials where trapentrances were sealed, and to 82.2 mm where trap-entrances were open.
The traps used in lobster and crab fisheries are a versatile fishing gear that can be modified to target specific species and size ranges through choice of design and bait (Miller, 1990).

 RI tries new lobster restoration approach
During the week ending Sept. 30, an average of 41% of recaptured v-notched lobsters brought up in lobster traps by lobstermen participating in the project were bearing eggs, according to OTF Chairman Ted Colburn.
The lobster restoration project was undertaken as part of a settlement agreement struck in July 2000 when the responsible parties (RP) in the 1996 North Cape oil spill agreed to restock 1.248 million v-notched female lobsters in the nearshore waters of Lobster Management Area 2 in Southern New England.
If anything, because only disease-free lobsters may be used in the restoration program, the RP may be selectively breeding disease-resistant lobsters, since those animals are protected from harvest and will have a better chance of contributing their eggs to the population.

The v-notched lobsters are then returned to the water and banned from harvest until they molt and the notch disappears.

Cape lobsters are elusive and rare, with only fourteen specimens being collected between 1792 (the date of its first description) and 1992, including only one female.
