    Just out of curiosity, how did the alewives migrate with the beaver dams prior to their eradication and then repopulation of the region? I would imagine that alewives evolved with beaver in the drainages that they use and were able to cope with the beaver dams prior to European intervention,

    I grew up in Ipswich Mass. We know a little bit about clams..... i cant believe Leroy cut off the neck or the snout as he called it and threw it away! We just peel off the outer black skin and it leaves a nice handle for dipping in melted butter and tastes fine.

    We just returned to Germany after visiting Maine. I wish the lobster pounds would use Leroy’s steaming in fresh water method. I ate whole lobster at four different highly recommended lobster pounds and they all boiled the heck out of them in salt water with the rubber bands on. They were tough and lacked flavor. The frozen popsicle Canadian lobsters we thaw and steam for 3 minutes in Germany have more flavor. The next time we visit Maine we will rent a place where we can cook lobsters Leroy’s way.
