Bill Leavenworth, “Maine Coastal Fisheries”
Thursday, July 6, 7 pm
Visitors Center, 2 Church St.
Cost: $8, $5 Members
Bill Leavenworth pours through old fishing logs and data housed at Penobscot Marine Museum and other fisheries research archives to shed light on the health of the fishing stocks over time. Come hear his latest research on the Maine coastal fisheries, which through 1924 caught more seafood product each year by weight and variety than Maine’s distant water fisheries (Grand Banks).
