Brought Levi on the Boat!

     Today, I got up at 4:30 AM like usual. Today, Uncle Art was going to bring Levi on the boat with us. We would go out with our normal day until about 9:30 AM, where we would go back to the wharf and grab Levi for the last 2 hours of the day. I did not make a sandwich today, because we were going to be done by Noon, so I could just eat a sandwich when I got home.

     We went down to the wharf and went out straight from the mooring. I filled each bag with mostly herring and 2 red fish. We had no Double Traps today. We were going through the traps. We saved the best traps for last when Levi was on board. At about 9:30 AM, we went back into the Wharf to grab Levi. He had a bag with a sweater and some snacks. We then went to get the last of our traps. We got a lot of lobsters in the Traps that were close to the Rock Island. When I had time, I held the lobsters, and let Levi band some. Then at one point, He could hold it in his left hand and band them with his right hand. I also let him through some Lobster down the Shoot that went to the Lobster holding box.

     He loved it on the boat, and he would always chase away the seagulls if they got too close to the Boat. They love to eat the bait that I through off of the bait bag into the water. His job was to get the seagulls away. We got done by Noon, then we went in to the Wharf to put the Lobsters into the Trays. We ended up with 450 LBs. It was pretty good because we got done by Noon. Then we got 3 Trays of Herring and 4 Trays of Red fish.

     Then, Uncle Art drove us home to Aunt Pennies House.
