Sustainability of the Western Rock Lobster Fishery: Past Progress and Future Challenges

The Western Rock Lobster Fishery has 594 boats operating about 57,000 pots. Their average annual catch of 11,000 tonnes is valued at around US$150-300 million. In addition to the commercial catch, recreational fishers take about 600 tonnes a year. Sustainability in this fishery is maintained by anal...
