Need a few fill-ins or a few Hundred new Custom Built Lobster Traps?
In the thirty two years since the first Ketcham Lobster Traps were delivered to Captain Bob Tilton on Cuttyhunk Island we have yet to devise a commercial lobster trap catalog. Afraid we never will. Lobstermen are in fact the real deal, they are individualists who know just what they want. These men do not want their lobster traps "out of a can", so we build their lobster traps as unique as they are, and just the way they want them built! Variations in lobster pot size and configuration are delivered just as you ordered, and on time. We are not a mass producer of lobster pots, we are a lobsterman's job shop.
Ketcham's has the equipment and experienced crew to get your job done right the first time. On time! We strongly encourage any potential lobster trap buyers to come to the shop and work with the crew to get your lobster pots just right. We're here 8-5 Monday thru Friday and Saturday mornings 9-12 during the spring and summer. Ketcham's is located in Historic New Bedford an hour south of Boston and 30 minutes from either Providence or the Cape Cod bridges. The George Washington Bridge is 200 miles.
