Abstract

Fisheries Queensland scientists analysed the Queensland commercial harvest and effort to calculate standardised catch rates. The stout whiting catch rates have increased since 2016 to above the 30 year average. Since 2017, the total allowable commercial catch (TACC) for Queensland has been 1106 tonnes (t). Based on the trends in the standardised catch rates, nine recommended total allowable commercial catch options are presented for consideration by Fisheries Queensland managers and the fishery working group ranging from 1123 t per year to 1284 t per year.
