  • Have Your Say on Two Inland Fishery Management Plans
    Issue 237, 15 January 2009 ISSN 1443-0592 Have your say on two inland fishery management plans The Minister Responsible for Fisheries, Joe Helper has announced the release of Draft Fishery Management Plans for the Wimmera and the Port Phillip and Western Port fisheries. The area covered by the Port Phillip and Western Port Fishery Management Plan aligns with the inland and estuarine waters administered by Melbourne Water and the Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority. Waters include the Yarra, Maribyrnong and Werribee rivers, Sugarloaf Reservoir, Family Fishing Lakes such as Rowville, Emerald and Karkarook, and Lillydale Lake which is managed as a ‘Premier Lake’ through the Go Fishing in Victoria initiative. The Port Phillip and Western Port inland fishery supports high quality brown and rainbow trout, mulloway, black bream, redfin, Murray cod, Macquarie perch and river blackfish recreational fisheries. The area covered by the Wimmera Fishery Management Plan aligns with the inland waters administered by the Wimmera Catchment Management Authority. The Wimmera fishery includes trout fisheries such as Wartook Lake, Bellfield Reservoir and Fyans Lake and native fisheries such as Taylor Lake and the Wimmera River. The Draft Fishery Management Plans outline strategies for the sustainable management of these fisheries. Strategies include encouraging responsible fishing behaviour, stocking fish to enhance recreational fishing and improving angler access. The Draft Fishery Management Plans are now being distributed to key stakeholder groups and are available to the public for comment. Copies of the draft management plans can be obtained from the DPI website at www.dpi.vic.gov.au/fishing > Managing Fisheries or by contacting the DPI Customer Service Centre on 136 186.

  • (Arripis Trutta) and Kermadec Kahawai (Arripis Xylabion) Were Introduced Into the QMS on 1 October 2004 Under a Single Species Code, KAH
    327 KAHAWAI (KAH) (Arripis trutta and Arripis xylabion) 1. FISHERY SUMMARY Kahawai (Arripis trutta) and Kermadec kahawai (Arripis xylabion) were introduced into the QMS on 1 October 2004 under a single species code, KAH. Kahawai were introduced into the QMS with six QMAs (KAH 1, KAH 2, KAH 3, KAH 4, KAH 8 and KAH 10), with allowances, TACC, and TAC as follows: Table 1: KAH allowances, TACCs, and TACs on introduction to the QMS, 1 October 2004. Fishstock Recreational Allowance Maori customary Allowance Other mortality TACC TAC KAH 1 1 865 550 75 1 195 3 685 KAH 2 680 205 35 785 1 705 KAH 3 435 125 20 455 1 035 KAH 4 5 1 0 10 16 KAH 8 425 125 25 580 1 155 KAH 10 5 1 0 10 16 These QMAs differ from the Management Areas used before kahawai were introduced into the QMS. The definitions of KAH 1, KAH 2 and KAH 10 remain unchanged, but KAH 4 was formerly part of KAH 3, as was that part of KAH 8 which is south of Tirua Point. The area of KAH 8 which is north of Tirua point was formerly called KAH 9. The Minister agreed to review the TACs for kahawai for the 2005-06 fishing year. Subsequently, he decided to reduce TACs, TACCs and allowances by 10% as follows: Table 2: KAH allowances, TACCs, and TACs, 1 October 2005. Fishstock Recreational Allowance Maori customary Allowance Other mortality TACC TAC KAH 1 1 680 495 65 1 075 3 315 KAH 2 610 185 30 705 1 530 KAH 3 390 115 20 410 935 KAH 4 4 1 0 9 14 KAH 8 385 115 20 520 1 040 KAH 10 4 1 0 9 14 328 KAHAWAI (KAH) (a) Commercial fisheries Commercial fishers take kahawai by a variety of methods.
