A total of 140 pieces of smaller lobsters to allowable height of the so-called "baby lobster" were seized from a man who said that it was a request
for Ortegas restaurant operating in Puerto Nuevo.
According to official data of Public Safety, around 16:00 hours reported by telephone to the police station of La Mission, north of Ensenada, to board
a public transport 38 with plate number 3118-ZND Brisa line, was aboard one elderly person who was carrying two coolers lobster called "baby lobster"
With this information officers conducted an operation that delegation and the 65 + 200 mile freeway, Ensenada Tijuana, within the town are the minibus
reported intervened.
Aboard the same officers found two coolers one white and one pink with white, which each contain 70 baby lobsters, pointing to a passenger named
Pedro Sanchez Ruiz 66 years that it owned.
He said it was an order that led to the Puerto Nuevo Restaurant called "Ortegas" which would pay for that order lobster 1500 pesos.
By asking the officers to the aforementioned documentation for the transportation and sale of seafood that the aforementioned argument have any
permission from any authority, so it was secured and made available to the Federal Public Prosecutor's Office.
It is unknown if he notified the Conapesca to return the product to the sea as required by law, because it is a living product.

When we ate at Villa Ortega's last month, the lobster order choices were either a "large" or "very large" lobster, both of which could have fed 3-4
people. The other choice was ordering an "order of small lobsters", of which you received six lobsters for two people.
We opted for the "large" lobster, of which we almost had some leftover to take home. It was fairly big and the tab came to $45.00 U.S and included two
margaritas each.

As a customer, do your part, don't accept the offer of 2 or 3 bugs for an order. Order the medium or large offering. In my experience the mediums
are usually undersized as well.
Know when the lobster season is open and realize in off season you are eating frozen or imported product.

I will have to wait a few more weeks, a little longer drive than you Udo. My tradition is to stop on the way back for that last mexican meal, and my 2
boys have decided they love lobster! They really don't understand why I don't let them get it here in CO

I tagged along on a weekend trip to Las Gaviotis
beach houses, about 1 mi. no. of Puerto Nuevo
a couple months back, full of Orange County
types, talked to a guy who purchased 20 lobsters
at Puerto Nuevo to cook at the house he rented,
20 lobsters for $40, he said they were undersized
