One especially captivating story from the region involved a rare yellow lobster, an occurrence that marine biologists say might be as unusual as a one in 30 million phenomenon. This extraordinary lobster was brought ashore in Bristol by Max Moody, who discovered it in his lobster traps near the Pemaquid Fisherman’s Wharf.
