KEYPORT, NJ \u2013 I\u2019m not a betting man, but if I was, I\u2019d wager that you\u2019d be stumped trying to guess the pedigree of New Jersey lobsterman Bruce Klawunn\u2019s 50\u2019 C Rae.<\/p>\n

Bruce Klawunn grew up in Keyport, NJ on Raritan Bay.\u00a0 While his father Fred \u2013 a WWII veteran who founded Sine-Tru Tool Co. \u2013 was no doubt the inspiration for Bruce\u2019s machining and welding abilities, working on the water held its own sort of…<\/p>\n
