- Each lobsterman (or lobsterwoman) has their own unique buoy color scheme and pattern, which acts like a "signature" on the water. It’s even registered with local authorities!
- Buoy colors are often passed down through generations of fishing families, creating a strong sense of identity and heritage.
- Old lobster buoys are popular as coastal decor. Some people even collect them as antiques or turn them into art pieces.
- Buoys come in various shapes—cylindrical, conical, or round—depending on the type of trap and the conditions of the fishing area.
- Lobster buoys with special flags or markers can signal traps placed in deep or hazardous waters.
- Traditionally made of wood and painted by hand, modern buoys are usually made from plastic or foam for durability.
- In many places, it’s illegal to tamper with or remove someone else’s lobster buoys—it's considered a serious crime known as "trap molesting."
