PORTLAND, Maine — Maine scallop fishermen are kicking off a season that'll last 70 days along most of the coast.
But fishermen in the scallop-rich waters of Cobscook Bay along the Canadian border in far eastern Maine will be limited to a 50-day season. The season opened Monday in three zones from Kittery to Lubec.
Maine's scallop fishermen operate under a regulatory system that divides the state into three zones with restrictions and closures in a number of areas aimed at allowing scallops to replenish.
