It's the Chesapeake Bay (down toward Crisfield), and the trays are for crabs.
You might see "peelers" in 'em. Those are soft shell crabs. That get fried and eaten whole, much to my youthful astonishment, when we moved to the peninsula from Kansas.
Lobster & crab share many qualities—firm flesh, sweetness, always ready to dance with melted butter, and best of all: the chance to play with one’s food.

This seems universal to me: any port, any ocean.
I’m curious about the three rectangles — and industrial size creel?

OH MY YES
Ah! I love crabs, though I've never tasted the fruit of the Chesapeake.
Lived in Duxbury, MA and enjoyed many a lobster roll as well as copious fresh fish.
Re: OH MY YES
I confess I've never eaten a lobster. Or maybe even lobster meat at all.
