The impact of changes in fishing patterns on red-legged banana prawns (Penaeus indicus) in the Joseph Bonaparte Gulf

The fishery for red-legged banana prawns in the Joseph Bonaparte Gulf (JBG) developed in the early 1980s. Since then, fishing effort has varied from 700 to 2600 boat-days per year and catches range from 200 to 1000 tonnes per year. Initially the JBG fishery developed as an alternative to fishing in...
