Any fellow mainers on here or other members do any commercial fishing off the shores of Maine? I've got some questions about the industry and if any of you are willing to help me out, please pm me.

Thanks, Alex

I fish off the other coast, but I'm always interested to see what other fishermen are doing in other places. I'll be watching this thread too.
