Summary
As part of ongoing management enhancement of the Bass fishery the Government of Jersey Marine Resources team have undertaken a study on the impact of gill net mesh size range on both catchability of the target species and relative bycatch. The Study was conducted on a local commercial fishing boat across the bass fishing winter season. Results of the study are presented in this report and will be used to inform bass fishery management in 2024 and beyond.
