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.
Last winter, he 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’s informative and fun video creations, about crustaceans have racked up some pretty impressive social media numbers:
Jacob Knowles has become a sensation on social media, and last year, he invited “CBS Saturday Mornings” to join him for a day out on the water to learn the secret of his success.
He also 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 568,000 views.
It also just happens to Maine Lobster Week, with a huge number of restaurants across the state taking part in this event.
Some participating locations will serve specially priced, multi-course lobster meals, other locations will feature lobster rolls, and extra special lobster dishes.
