Flat Corrin on a real lobsterboat

 Lobsterman Ron Alley took Flat Corrin on his lobsterboat. He was tied up at the bait shed getting bait. The hooks you see are hanging from the bait shed, and are what they use to lower the boxes of bait onto the boat. You can see Ron's bait box behind him.






These are two boxes of bait  ready to go into Ron's boat. The bait is fish called herring. Herring is what you are eating when you eat sardines from Maine and Canada.


Here is the bait being loaded into the boat. Flat Corrin thought the bait was interesting but gross!


Flat Corrin waved goodby when Ron put his boat back on the mooring. She watched Ron's sternman, (a sternman is a helper), go out to get Ron in the outboard.
