At Cap Lumiere, New Brunswick Lobster boats prowl as fishermen, or more like cats licking their way across Northumberland Strait as footprint smudges on ocean’s surface, sky an Atlantic opaque today’s crew bragging in their yellow mackinaws moist with morning dew. Stench of herring bait, a sure lure. Slatted traps, a feathery parade to ocean’s bottom, home for ‘canners’ and ‘markets’ and their protruding eyes anxious, claws groping. © Richard L. Provencher |
