Giant two-and-a-half foot lobster, 60, saved from the kitchen pot

[super jumbe]

This giant lobster has avoided being the catch of the day in a seafood restaurant - because he's so huge he'll be thrown back in the sea.

The monster two-and-a-half foot lobster, nicknamed 'Lobby' or 'Claws', was pulled from the sea near Lyme Regis, Dorset.

He said: 'I haven't seen many that big. The crushing claw is especially big.

'Fishermen get paid for the weight when selling lobsters but over a certain limit that doesn't apply because the meat is too tough.

I heard they say size matter, so if its too small we can not eat them if its to big we can not eat them does it makes any sense?
