Abstract
During the 2017/18 fishing season, some catches made in Area 3+4 by trapboats were landed in Area 5+6 as hoopnet catches. This document reports the methodology used and the results obtained from an attempt to correct the catches reported for these super-areas to adjust for this malpractice.
