Summary

During November and December 1983 and February to May 1984, the Commonwealth funded South Australian Deep Water Line Fishing Survey investigated the viability of droplining and trotlining on the continental slope off southeast Australia.

At present many south Australian fishermen rely heavily on rock lobster and the establishment of a trot/dropline fishery would provide a valuable alternative for this fishery, and could prove to be a substantial benefit to local fishermen.

In April 1983, the Minister for Primary Industry approved the expenditure of $83,500 from the Fishing Industry Research Trust Account towards a project aimed at providing an alternative fishery to the already established rock lobster and shark fisheries.

Assess new technologies and techniques that could improve the cost-effectiveness and robustness of recreational fishing surveys

Currently, the most significant gap in our knowledge in assessing the status of community-shared fisheries is determining the relative contribution by the recreational sector. To explore this issue, a two-day national workshop was held from 10-12 July 2018 at the South Australian Research and...

A data management and reporting system and temporal and spatial analysis of historical catch records in the SA abalone fishery

Abalone stocks exist as a large number of metapopulations or sub-stocks each with peculiar growth and mortality characteristics. Hence different populations respond differently to exploitation through fishing. The sustainability of this fishery is linked to effective management of these...
