All main and most secondary access points were covered on the Northland Coast from Rangiputa to Mangawhai Heads on 60 survey days. The harvest estimate expanded to the CRA 1 management area was 42 t of red rock lobster and 5 t of packhorse rock lobster. Areas close to the population centres around Whangarei and Bay of Islands had the most fishing effort and amateur harvest.
