Queensland Fin Fish (Stout Whiting) Trawl Fishery Statement of Management Arrangements

This Statement of Management Arrangements is intended to provide information and transparency to all interested parties regarding the management and operation of the Fin Fish (Stout Whiting) Trawl Fishery (T4 Fishery).

The T4 Fishery targets stout whiting (Sillago robusta) in a defined area off south-east Queensland and is managed through a range of control mechanisms:

  • input controls-limited entry, net length, and sweep length and mesh size
  • output controls-total allowable catch on target species and trip limits on byproduct species
  • access controls-seasonal closures and spatial delineation of the fishery area.

For a summary of the management arrangements that are currently in place and information on proposed development of further arrangements, download the full document:Queensland Fin Fish Trawl Fishery: Statement of Management Arrangements (PDF download PDF 76 kB)
