Big Changes to the Lobster Regs for next season - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

When it was 12:00 midnight opener, a lot of boats would go to their favorite spot and sit and drink until mid-night.

Perhaps too many drunks operating the boats in the dark.

Then it would be only about 6 hours of hooping until dawn. Lobsters are usually caught during dark hours.

Now since it is 6:00 AM, they can drive to their place in light and actually have about 12 hours of hooping.

Is my guess.
