Lobster fisherman Mike McGeoghegan is trying again to create a lobster commodity marketing board.
When he tried 25 years ago to set up a board, it was a contentious idea and didn't receive the 60 per cent vote necessary from fishermen to pass.
"We've got to change. We need the money right now — we can't fish for what we're getting for [lobster] right now," McGeoghegan, who is now president of the P.E.I. Fishermen's Association, said Monday.
"Right now, we're just in limbo, we're just hanging here waiting, and fishing season is almost ready to start and we still don't have a price, we don't know what's going on," he said. "The processors aren't saying anything and fishermen don't know where they are."
