Maine Social Media Star Goes Lobster Fishing In A Blizzard

Maine's craziest lobster guy is at it again!

Not many people know lobster like Jacob Knowles!

Maine has a lot of social media stars on TikTok. Chef Adam Libby, and Tatum Talks, but one influencer is "making waves" on several platforms.

Sure, we all love to eat Maine lobster, but have you ever thought about how it gets from the ocean to your plate? That's the beauty of Jacob's videos. He breaks it all down in a very entertaining way.

Knowles is a Mainer who graduated from Sumner Memorial High School, in Sullivan. He is a 5th generation lobster fisherman. He spends a lot of time exploring the great state of Maine, in a 54 Cessna 180.

He recently took the boat out, smack-dab in the middle of one of Maine's infamous winter blizzards, and then battled some pretty interesting weather during his trip.

Jacob Knowles has become a sensation on social media, and a few months back, he invited "CBS Saturday Mornings" to join him for a day out on the water to learn the secret of his success.

Recently, he visited Times Square in New York City, to handout lobsters to random strangers! The video has a bunch of hilarious reactions from people being handed live Maine lobsters!

Folks also tried lobster rolls that were made fresh with Luke's Lobster roll kits and some even went home with their very own Maine lobster!

A few years back, he claimed that the Blue Lobster he snagged was "the coolest lobster he has ever caught" People seemed to agree, because the short video he posted, has racked up more than 500,000 views.
