The quota for recreational fishers is 4 lobsters a day (only on weekends - during the second stage of the fishing/ catch season). The size restriction is 80mm carapace length. However, poaching is a problem and South African National Parks (SANParks) law enforcement officials monitor boats at key slipways to ensure fishers have permits and are adhering to them.
