Abstract

This paper develops a model to evaluate the impact of trawling migrating breeding lobsters on the fishery. The results show that fishing for breeding lobsters will further reduce the spawning stock and cause a loss of catch to the fishery when the fishery is fully or over-exploited. The loss increases with fishing mortality and the amount of catch taken from the breeding stock. If trawling only occurs on the PNG side, a redistribution of catch between Australia and PNG will result. This may present a small gain in catch for PNG at the expense of Australia in the Torres Strait dive fishery.
