Lobster Parlour Pots
After enduring decades of winter storms and damage to “any old” Lobster Pots we decided to start making our own in 2014. Monteum manufacture durable plastic Lobster Parlour Pots, the famous “George Hurst” type, which which we also sell on the wholesale market.
Monteum’s Lobster Parlour Pots are more durable and out preform others on the market because they are made of plastic and rubber which has many advantages over the steel lobster pots for sale elsewhere:
- Plastic pots do not rust.
- Plastic pots tend to give and recover to their original shape without damage in just a few minutes after being jammed in a rock. Whereas a steel pot is normally bent for life.
- Plastic pots are less likely to get snapped off a backline.
- Plastic pots always land right-side up on the seabed due to the way water runs out of the drill holes in the pipe when aboard.
- A stack of plastic pots has a little “give” making them more stable on deck in unfavourable weather conditions.
A standard plastic Parlour Pot measures approximately 30″ x 18″, has an 8″ black plastic entrance and weights 18.5kg. All our pots are made from scratch by hand in Sussex and all pots are made to order.
Should you wish, an escape hatch can be included in the manufacturing of the lobster parlour pots at no additional cost to allow for the release of any juveniles.
