Abstract
A new set of 2018 assessments for all five super-areas for the west coast rock lobster resource has been completed. These are now used as bases for projecting the resource (in each super-area) forwards under a number of constant future legal catch (CC) scenarios, as well as for different past and future poaching scenarios, which also have different impacts on the assessments. Results are reported mainly in relation to the resource as a whole, but an Appendix provides more detailed results for super-area A8+, in which the bulk of the resource is to be found at present.
