Wooden lobster pots used to adorn the wharfs of every coastal village in New England. Now, Mystic Seaport honors those lobstermen of old. These traps were dropped overboard, with their locations marked by colorful
buoys. Lobsters, attraced by salted herring, crawled in through the hole but could not escape. Modern traps are made from
coated wire. [2018]
