Restaurant Ready Whitewater Mussels

Enlightened management measures are fundamental to any lobster fisheries self-sustainability and should always be the first choice when considering methods for increasing or preserving stock levels. Current Irish lobster fishery regulations include: a) A minimum size for the lobsters landed which is a carapace length of 87 mm. b) Ban on the landing of lobsters that have been ā€œVā€ notched or have a mutilated tail fan. c) Prohibition of capture of lobsters by SCUBA diving, and d) Licensing of all commercial fishing vessels. A Restaurant Ready Whitewater Mussel trade or Big One Mussel is a bottom cultured product fished from the cool waters of New England. Post-harvest, the mussels are shipped to our facility located on Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island where the Restaurant Ready process begins.
