PORTLAND, Maine — Maine's scallop fishery is reaching the end of a season that showed signs of further rebuilding.
The fishery collapsed in the mid-2000s and has steadily rebuilt amid new management measures over the last few years. Tuesday is the final day of the 2017-18 season for scallop draggers to harvest the shellfish.
The fishery still includes a few divers who harvest scallops by hand, and they can continue working until April 15.
