Overview of finfish fisheries
• Target 70 species, >150 species recorded
• Sustainable catch of individual species small (10s to 100s tonnes).
• Series of multi-sector, multi-method fisheries.
• 23 managed commercial finfish fisheries.
• Only general ‘wetline’ fishery still unmanaged.
• Recreational and charter sectors.
![Page 4: Meeting the data requirements for integrated fisheries ... · integrated fisheries management: progress towards minimising the cost of monitoring Rick Fletcher, Dan Gaughan, Rod Lenanton,](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcf67c6beb8e26453288132/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Time for change
• Call for allocation of catch shares amongst sectors
• Recognition of significant regional differences in resource and community values.
• Shift from individual stock focus to broader sustainability of ecosystems and regional communities.
Proactively account for multiple user groups and changing circumstances over the next 10 to 20 years.

Bio-Regional Management
![Page 6: Meeting the data requirements for integrated fisheries ... · integrated fisheries management: progress towards minimising the cost of monitoring Rick Fletcher, Dan Gaughan, Rod Lenanton,](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcf67c6beb8e26453288132/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Laying the foundation
• Clear understanding of management objectives and required outcomes in each Bioregion.
• Risk assessment of priorities across Bioregions, habitats, species.
• Manage on the basis of most vulnerable/conflict/target/rare species.
• Design surveys to allow cost-effective monitoring at the appropriate frequency.

Prioritization
![Page 8: Meeting the data requirements for integrated fisheries ... · integrated fisheries management: progress towards minimising the cost of monitoring Rick Fletcher, Dan Gaughan, Rod Lenanton,](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcf67c6beb8e26453288132/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Data requirements
The two main issues:
• Stock status – Sustainable harvest level for each resource
• Catch shares – Size of each sector’s harvested catch
The extent to which we succeed with the long-term realisation of the IFM vision depends on a
robust data-collection system. (+ others)
![Page 9: Meeting the data requirements for integrated fisheries ... · integrated fisheries management: progress towards minimising the cost of monitoring Rick Fletcher, Dan Gaughan, Rod Lenanton,](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcf67c6beb8e26453288132/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Cost effective monitoring of age composition
• Examination of age structure continues to provide the basis for assessing stock status
• Cannot undertake for all target species
• Remains expensive to undertake for indicator species

Monitoring of commercial/charter catch & effort*
• Known client base (licensed)
• Long-term, mandatory reporting system
• Daily/trip* logbooks being developed
• Database systems being upgraded
• Charter logbook validation survey (shore-based vs sea-based?)
![Page 15: Meeting the data requirements for integrated fisheries ... · integrated fisheries management: progress towards minimising the cost of monitoring Rick Fletcher, Dan Gaughan, Rod Lenanton,](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcf67c6beb8e26453288132/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Cost effective monitoring of recreational catch and effort
• No system to record catch and effort
• Extremely large and variable client base
• Creel surveys - expensive
• Phone/diary surveys – less expensive
• Need to investigate alternatives

Estimates of recreational catch rates
Current (and ongoing) resources: review, develop and assess collection of catch and effort.
• Fisheries Marine Officers - routine checks of vessels at boat ramps (underway)
• Volunteers (Vol. Fisheries Liaison Officers) –routine visits to beach
![Page 23: Meeting the data requirements for integrated fisheries ... · integrated fisheries management: progress towards minimising the cost of monitoring Rick Fletcher, Dan Gaughan, Rod Lenanton,](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcf67c6beb8e26453288132/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Summary
Department of Fisheries has embarked on the transition from single fishery/individual sector management arrangements to an integrated approach across all user groups.
• The data challenges relate to:
− ongoing sustainable harvest estimation
− monitoring catch shares for each sector
Cost effective techniques are being developed to monitor recreational catch and effort
![Page 24: Meeting the data requirements for integrated fisheries ... · integrated fisheries management: progress towards minimising the cost of monitoring Rick Fletcher, Dan Gaughan, Rod Lenanton,](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022071016/5fcf67c6beb8e26453288132/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Summary Contd.
• Understand objectives and required outcomes
• Prioritize across Bioregions, habitats, species.
• Design surveys/methods to allow cost-effective monitoring at the appropriate frequency.
• Improve current systems (catch & effort)
Aim: Achieve maximum return (i.e. assess status of more stocks & determine catch
levels for more fisheries)
