I also saw a report on the "lobster glut" (the last one was right after the Financial Crisis hit in 2008) but I haven't seen any remarkably low lobster prices outside of New England yet. In the Mid-Atlantic, our cheapest lobster prices are usually at Shoprite. They've been doing $5.99/lb. off and on the past couple of months -- which isn't any better than last year. During the last glut, they got down to $3.99. I'm guessing patience will bring a better sale this summer. My lobster pot is at the ready.
