Downeast Trap Shack
For over 70 years, Brooks Trap Mill has been an integral part of the local lobster industry.
We are happy to be a third-generation (and growing!) family-owned business with locations in Thomaston, Portland, Bath, and Jonesboro, Maine and now one in Wakefield, Rhode Island. Our focus is on the commercial lobster industry, aquaculture, and other trap fisheries. We offer a great selection of commercial fishing supplies, new and used traps, and equipment.
At Brooks Trap Mill, we supply commercial fishermen with traps to catch lobster, shrimp, conch, crab, eel, fish, or anything else in the ocean that you’re trying to catch. For you watermen, Brooks Trap Mill is proud to offer aquaculture supplies for the oyster, mussel, and scallop industries that range from cages and racks to grow-out materials.
No matter how you work on the water, you can find what you need at Brooks Trap Mill. Each of our locations inventories a large selection of items for the commercial fisherman, such as fishing gloves, knives and foul weather gear, as well as gaffs, bait bags, buoys, rope, and paint. If you need something out of the ordinary, we will work our hardest to get it for you quickly. Stop by today and see us!
As we say: “If you don’t see it, just ask!”
