  • A Quality Future for the Recreational Marron Fishery
    Proposals for community discussion A QUALITY FUTURE FOR THE RECREATIONAL MARRON FISHERY A five-year draft strategy to ensure the long-term sustainability of the marron fishery By the RFAC Recreational Freshwater Fisheries Stakeholder Sub-Committee FISHERIES MANAGEMENT PAPER No. 198 Published by the Department of Fisheries 168-170 St Georges Terrace Perth WA 6000 September 2005 ISSN 0819-4327 Fisheries Management Paper No. 198 A Quality Future for the Recreational Marron Fishery By the RFAC Recreational Freshwater Fisheries Stakeholder Sub-Committee September 2005 Fisheries Management Paper No. 198 ISSN 0819-4327 2 Fisheries Management Paper No. 198 FOREWORD Fishing for marron has a long history in Western Australia. The large freshwater crayfish has been highly prized for its eating qualities since early European settlement and Indigenous West Australians are likely to have captured marron for thousands of years. In the early 21st century, over 20,000 recreational licenses are issued annually that enable fishers to participate in the marron fishery. There are now thought to be two separate species of marron - the common or ‘smooth’ marron and the recently discovered ‘hairy’ marron. The ‘hairy’ marron, which only occurs in Margaret River, is now under threat from habitat changes and the more aggressive ‘smooth’ marron that has been introduced into the Margaret River catchment. While a designated recovery team has been established to help protect ‘hairy’ marron stocks, there has been widespread concern over the past few decades that ‘smooth’ marron stocks are also under increasing pressure through environmental changes. Factors such as declining rainfall, land management practices, predation by exotic and feral fish and fishing pressure have all contributed to declining stocks in many popular ‘marroning’ locations.

The parks will continue to support a wide range of nature-based recreational activities that are compatible with the conservation values whilst preserving the remote nature and wilderness values of the parks. The local community as well as the wider community will highly value the parks and will want to be involved in their protection and conservation. The Indigenous cultural heritage of the parks will be kept alive and promoted by active and ongoing involvement of the traditional owners who will have been able to reconnect with and care for their country. i PREFACE All national parks, conservation parks and nature reserves in Western Australia are vested in the Conservation Commission of Western Australia. The Department of Environment and Conservation, in accordance with the Conservation and Land Management Act 1984, carries out the management of these reserves and prepares management plans on behalf of the Conservation Commission. The Conservation Commission issues draft management plans for public comment and provides final management plans for approval by the Minister for Environment.
