Tasmanian recreational rock lobster fishing data

Recreational rock lobster fishing data for the periods between 2002/03 to 2024/25, for eight assessment areas in Tasmania by fishing method (pot, ring, dive). The data includes estimated catch (in kilograms and numbers of lobsters), estimated effort (in fishing days) and estimated catch rate (in number of lobsters/fishing days). Both species, Southern Rock Lobster (Jasus edwardsii) and, occasionally, the Eastern Rock Lobster (Sagmariasus verreauxi) are caught and reported together.

The data was compiled from the Tasmanian Recreational Rock Lobster and Abalone Fisheries survey reports produced by IMAS.

The assessments are conducted using a survey involving a random sample of licence-holders who are contacted by telephone prior to the start of the fishing season and invited to participate in a phone-diary survey to monitor their rock lobster fishing activity between November and April.
