Abstract
A Bayesian approach is used to assess the south coast rock lobster resource based upon a model that allows for time-varying selectivity. Estimation precision appears good. Biomass projections and their uncertainties are compared for four different scenarios: two constant catch options, and simple empirically and model-based OMPs.
