The Art of Maine Lobster: A Tradition of Sustainability and Excellence
For generations, Maine lobster fishing has been more than just an industry—it's been a way of life that shapes the character of our coastal communities. At Cousins Maine Lobster, we're proud to bring this rich heritage directly to your table, offering the finest, sustainably harvested Maine lobster available anywhere.
A Legacy of Sustainable Practices
Maine's lobster fishery stands as a global model for sustainable seafood harvesting. Our commitment to responsible fishing practices ensures that future generations will continue to enjoy this premium seafood while protecting the marine ecosystem.
Here's how Maine lobstermen maintain this delicate balance:
- Every caught lobster is carefully measured—only those between 3.25 and 5 inches in carapace length can be kept
- Female lobsters bearing eggs are marked and protected, ensuring population sustainability
- Strict trap limits and regulations protect the marine environment
- 70-90% of trapped lobsters are released back to the ocean
