Ultra-rare cotton candy lobster caught in Maine at 1-100 million odds

Talk about a catch of a lifetime! A Maine lobsterman scored a 1-in-100 million catch: A rare cotton candy shaded lobster. The lobster, caught in Maine’s Casco Bay in Nov. 2021, features an iridescent, opal-like shade on its shell, a result of a genetic mutation that creates unique colorings. Get Maine Lobster CEO Mark Murrell says he couldn't believe the news when he heard one of his contractors scored the rare hull. They named the lobster "Haddie," after the lobsterman's granddaughter.
