South East Trawl Fishery: Seal Bycatch - guidelines for reporting and data collection
C. Stewardson & I. Knuckey
Currently, there is little information on seal–fishery interactions in the wet boat sector of the South East Trawl Fishery (SETF), so it is difficult to assess the nature and extent of the issue, or to develop effective mitigation measures. This booklet is part of a larger industry-based education and monitoring program that will encourage more accurate and regular reporting of seal–fisheries interactions in the SETF.
