our lobster season opens Monday

[NS whitetail]

well guys, on Monday it will be time for me to head back on the ocean for another 6 month lobster fishery. As of now though, it is giving gale force winds for Monday and the season opener may be delayed until Tuesday. We will know tommorow.
Here is a couple of pics I took today while everyone was loading the boats with traps. The light colored boat in the first pic is the one I fish on.
The opener " dumping day" as we call it is the most dangerous day of the year, with all the boats loaded with traps heading out to the fishing grounds, sometimes guys get into trouble and capsize.
Keep us all in your prayers.
