5 pot max for recreational fishers
6 lobsters per day
Note: there are 2 different carpice sizes in NYS. LIS area 6 has a 3 5/16" and in the Atlantic ocean area 4 we let the lobster gorw a little bigger to 3 3/8" before harvesting.
There is:
no season
no soak time
Pots must be:
properly marked with name and permit #
Bait:
herring= lobster candy
![]()

fresh buker= my choice because of price and availability, bait pucks and fish racks second choices.
If you found a pot on the beach, it should of had the fishermans and his boats name on a tag in the pot. The right thing what should be done is to give a jingle
