Download FAR 2022/42 Rock lobster catch and effort data: 1979–80 to 2021–22

This paper summarises catch and effort statistics for rock lobsters by 1 April–31 March fishing year for the nine CRA QMAs, ending with 31 March 2022. These summaries include number of vessels, catch and effort (potlifts) by QMA and statistical area, landings by month and a range of QMA-specific CPUE series that are used in stock assessments. Standardised CPUE has not been updated beginning with 2019–20 because of comparability issues after the introduction of the electronic reporting system.
