Adult east coast lobsters are protected. It took decades for the penny to drop and for recognition that these big ones are the main breeding stock.

So, very small lobsters are protected, the middle sized ones can be caught, very large adults are to be left in the sea.

Also the use of scuba is illegal to take lobster. OK to hold them for a picture like this one with petite model Christine Danaher showing a couple of pets located previously by Dennis Kemp near Forster on the mid north coast of New South Wales.
