There three categories of fishing that are not included in landings; illegal, unreported and unregulated catch (IUU) and are considered like lack of information. It is necessary, to consider these categories of fishing to know the true impact of the fishing upon the fisheries resources and then propose adequate management measures. In this paper illegal fishing of abalone and lobster from western coast of Baja California peninsula, Mexico is analyzed in order to estimate the problem magnitude. From official records of landings and information of illegal fishing reports we do an estimation of total extraction of these resources using Montecarlo´s simulation method.
