stories that come out of this guy's doing this dude's doing this but now there's so many regulations and things like that you have you know fda non-stop or the local government in that's always checking stuff checking species things like that so that really cut it down which is great probably good yeah you don't you know there's things people mislabeling things so that that cut all that down which is really good yeah yeah i know some people are against regulation but i think for something like this it's good
Yeah, you have to, especially in today's day and age, you got to.
Yeah, so lobsters are another one that are just tight.
And all the hard shell, a lot of them go to Asia.
So they fly them.
They want the Canadian or Maine hard shells.
And they'll pay a way bigger premium in Japan and China than they would in the US.
So of course, those lobstermen are going to take whoever they could sell them to for the most money.
Obviously, they're in business.
But just like everything else, it's just getting tighter and tighter.
And, like, I don't think a lot of people realize seafood's the last of the hunted species.
There's nothing else that you really go out there on a daily basis.
There's cow farms, chicken farms, you know, pork farms.
You know, you can't just go hit a swordfish farm or you can't farm raised lobsters.
Right.
Because it takes seven years just to grow one pound.
Damn.
So, I mean, this bad boy, like we said, he's about seven pounds, so he's 50 years old.
Yeah.
These are about the biggest.
