Vintage Style Handmade Wooden Lobster Buoys
These buoys are made by us, by hand. Each is unique and has old fisherman twine to hang it. Our extended family made these wood buoys, used by lobster fishermen to mark their traps. Each fisherman had their own colours to mark their traps or nets. They would have up to 300 buoys of one colour. These wooden buoys are no longer used for fishing as they foul the prop of the boats. But, they make great décor for the ocean oriented person! We make them in three sizes:

Medium
This is a tailing buoy. It was used by lobster fishermen when the tides were stronger. Sometimes the tides would suck the larger ones down under water and these little ones, being lighter, would not get sucked under as easily. There were only a few tide days in each year when they would need to do this.
