  • 3/20/12 -- HARPSWELL SOUND, HARPSWELL, Maine. Sternman Zach Drehobl, left, and Captain Jim Barclay of Harpswell's F/V Lorelei haul aboard a lobster trap lost in 2007 on Tuesday morning as part of 'Gear Grab', sponsored by non-profit association, Gulf of Maine Lobster Foundation (GOMLF). <br />
<br />
Gear Grab provides grant funding to lobster fishermen who volunteer to grapple up some of the thousands of pounds of lost lobstering gear - known as "Ghost Gear" - which litters the sea floor in Maine's fishing grounds.<br />
<br />
The 2-day Harpswell-based event allowed fishermen to clean up places which they knew were already a mess - and drag a grappling hook along the bottom in places where they guessed Ghost Gear might have accumulated.  ."I didn't even use the fish finder -- I just knew where that one was - I was snagging it all last year," said Captain Barclay of hauling in a snarl of 18 traps in Harpswell Sound on Monday. <br />
<br />
On Monday F/V Lorelei brought in close to 30 ghost traps - the first day of the event. Tuesdays catch came to four - with a few pieces of wooden traps which appeared to disintegrate on the way up from the bottom. "We've really only dragged about a quarter of the spots which we know are bad," said Sternman Drehobl. "And, the hard part is - you could miss [a ghost trap] by three feet with your hook and never know it."<br />
<br />
GOMLF is a non-profit based in Kennebunk which works with fishermen, scientists and community members to support a healthy lobster fishery in Maine. <br />
<br />
Another Gear Grab is planned for Tenant's Harbor on Wednesday and Thursday this week and a date and place are being set up by Director Erin Pelletier for Southern Maine in the next few weeks. <br />
