Fisheries research reports
Whiskery (Furgaleus macki), gummy (Mustelus antarcticus), dusky (Carcharhinus obscurus) and sandbar (C. plumbeus) sharks are the main (~80% of the shark catch) shark species of the Temperate Demersal Elasmobranch Resource (TDER).

Fisheries research reports
Monitoring the temporal and spatial variability in recreational fishing provides necessary information for assessing resource sustainability, monitoring resource allocation and informing fisheries management. This is particularly important in inner Shark Bay because recreational fishing occurs in a World Heritage Area and Marine Park. The majority of boat-based recreational fishers in inner Shark Bay target Pink Snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) and three genetically distinct stocks of this species occur in the Denham Sound, Eastern Gulf and Freycinet Estuary Management Zones.
Weight-Length Summaries For Western Australian Fish Species Derived From Surveys Of Recreational Fishers At Boat Ramps, C.B. Smallwood, Alissa Tate, Karina L. Ryan
Weight-Length Summaries For Western Australian Fish Species Derived From Surveys Of Recreational Fishers At Boat Ramps, C.B. Smallwood, Alissa Tate, Karina L. Ryan
Fisheries research reports
Estimates of recreational catch from boat-based recreational fishers have been generated in Western Australia since 2011/12 using an integrated survey comprising off-site Phone-Diary Surveys, on-site Boat Ramp Surveys and Remote Camera Surveys. The primary purpose of the Boat Ramp Surveys is to determine an average weight for key species to convert estimates of recreational catch by numbers (determined from the Phone-Diary Survey) to harvest weight for comparison with catches from the commercial sector.
Decision Tree And Rapid Appraisal Methodology For New Fisheries, Anthony M. Hart
Decision Tree And Rapid Appraisal Methodology For New Fisheries, Anthony M. Hart
Fisheries research reports
The objective of this report is to provide a process (RAM – Rapid Appraisal Methodology) for assessing proposals for new fisheries. If adopted, the methodology could extend to a potential new initiative, referred to as WildCulture in this report. The RAM process is designed to be a modern, forward thinking, opportunity creating instrument for enhancing seafood production from renewable aquatic resources.
Risk Assessment Of The Potential Impacts Of Seismic Air Gun Surveys On Marine Finfish And Invertebrates In Western Australia, F J. Webster, Brent S. Wise, H Kemps, Warrick Fletcher
Risk Assessment Of The Potential Impacts Of Seismic Air Gun Surveys On Marine Finfish And Invertebrates In Western Australia, F J. Webster, Brent S. Wise, H Kemps, Warrick Fletcher
Fisheries research reports
Seismic surveys have the potential to affect marine life, including commercially and recreationally important finfish and invertebrate species and their prey. There is, however, considerable uncertainty around the degree of impact and relevant pressure-response pathways across the different taxonomic groups.
Improving Confidence In The Management Of The Blue Swimmer Crab (Portunus Armatus) In Shark Bay Part Iii: Proceedings Of The Third National Workshop On Blue Swimmer Crab Portunus Armatus Western Australian Fisheries And Marine Research Laboratories, Hillarys, Perth, 3 – 4 June 2015. Frdc Project No. 2012/15, Arani Chandrapavan
Fisheries research reports
The ‘Third National Workshop on Blue Swimmer Crab’ was organised and held at Department of Fisheries (Western Australia) in Hillarys (3-4 June, 2015), almost 15 years after the second workshop in 1997. The workshop brought together fisheries scientists, managers, university researchers, consultants, industry stakeholders and fishers from across Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia, Tasmania and Western Australia and addressed six broad themed sessions;
• State overview of blue swimmer crab commercial fisheries
• Monitoring, stock assessment and harvest strategy
• Environmental drivers and climate change
• Blue swimmer crabs….from the sea to the plate
• Recreational fishing and surveys …
