Maine lobsterman forfeits excess traps after officials hide tracking devices on his boat

MAINE PUBLIC • November 13, 2026

Dakoda Gray, 38, is accused of fishing 17 traps over the 800 trap limit off Tremont, a Mount Desert Island town, and of submerging 124 traps more than he was allowed to in a neighboring lobster fishing zone where he wasn’t licensed. Gray failed to appear in court in early November, which led to the forfeiture to the state of the 124 traps he set in the neighboring zone.
