Download FAR 2022/31 Albacore catch sampling during 2018–19 to 2020–21

Albacore caught by trolling during the 2018–19 to 2020–21 fishing seasons were sampled in fish sheds to determine the length frequency composition and length-weight relationship. Data were scaled to the reported commercial catch recorded either on CELR forms or electronically and were compared with the commercial data for spatial and temporal representativeness of the fishery.
