Keeping Lobsters Whole on Your Trip Home

2-3-2012
CDFG

Question: Is it true that spiny lobsters must be kept whole (and not tailed) until brought into our home and ready for immediate consumption? That's what I just heard but I thought they just needed to stay whole until they could be brought ashore so that size can be determined. That's what we've always done. Is it OK to tail them once ashore?

Answer: No. Lobster must remain in a whole, measurable condition, until being prepared for immediate consumption (CCR Title 14, Section 29.90(e)).
