Capt. Amy's Lobster Fisherman for a Day

Before sunrise, meet Captain Amy and her crew at Caribou Fishermen's Wharf to board Lauramy N Boyz, a working Northumberland Strait fishing boat for a full-day lobstering adventure. As the crew prepares for the day, Captain Amy provides a safety briefing, a tour of the vessel, and a chance to try on a survival suit, ensuring all participants are ready for the experience. As you sail toward the fishing grounds, enjoy a breathtaking sunrise over the Strait, with calm waters and warm colors creating a magical start to your maritime journey.

On the fishing grounds, observe Captain Amy and her crew hauling traps, measuring and picking lobsters, baiting traps, and banding their catch while learning about generations of fishing on the Northumberland Strait. Captain Amy shares insights into sustainable practices and conservation efforts that protect this treasured way of life. After a full day of hands-on activity, return to the wharf and witness local fishermen selling their catch and preparing for the next day of lobstering. Each participant leaves with two live Northumberland Strait lobsters and a deep appreciation of local culture, traditions, and maritime heritage. This immersive experience blends adventure, education, and authentic coastal charm, creating lasting memories for everyone on board.
