Fishing for Rock Lobster

Catch predictions for the rock lobster fishery indicate that catches in three to four seasons are likely to be the lowest on record in 40 years.

To ensure the sustainability of the fishery, changes have been made to both commercial and recreational fishing rules.

These rules will be further reviewed as new information becomes available.
