Lobster Season?
When does the lobster season officially open here in Baja?
The search I did says it starts October 1st but I know for a fact that at least one local "lobster fisherman" has been selling his bugs to locals as
early as September 17th.
What is the law?
Just do it!

I got a call this evening "confirming" that the season here in Baja Norte started on September 15th.
Heading north tomorrow so think I'll stop off in Puerto Nuevo and see if they have any fresh ones! They'll know!

Our "land lord" invited all of his land renters for lobster over the past few days; (his buddies give it to him)....they were TEENY TINY TAILS. Have
to be illegal to harvest these "bugs". Would have to eat about 10 to make one Maine lobster tail...

Hoopnets.... We used to make them out of bicycle rims. Had 'em all around the Balboa jetty. Those were the days.

I stopped buying lobster dinners in northern baja since they started serving those small tails. Lobster fishermen are going to decimate their
fishery, if they have not already, harvesting lobsters that have never been given the opportunity to breed. By buying undersized lobster dinners one
is contributing to lobster fishery's decline.

Dennis, did you catch?? hooping seems to have gained in poularity in the past few years. Not as easy as it used to be. The bugs are still there, but
its a traffic jam of boats trying to find a spot...Picture from the good old days (last season)..

Season? Hmmm. Well, to paraphrase some famous former Miss America, "a day without lobster is a day without sunshine."

Oh yeah. Caught a lot of 'em. We knew the bottom well, where the sand met the rock. Couldn't help but catch them in those days. To give you an
idea of the abundance of everything once upon a time, high school in Newport Beach, our first metal shop project was to make an abalone iron.
Everybody made one and most everybody used them. Didn't even have to dive since they were in knee deep water. Folks then would rather have spaghetti.
How things have changed.
