Description
Summary:An updated GLMM standardisation of trotline toothfish CPUE data is presented which includes new data for the 2022 “fishing-year”. Vessels with trotline gear stopped operating in the fishery from May 2022. Thus only partial CPUE data are available for the 2022 “fishing-year”. After a marked decrease in CPUE from 2015 to 2017, there has been a notable increase in the CPUE indices apart from a decline in the 2020 index. The 2021 index is the highest since 2012 and is close to the larger values estimated for the first three years (2010-2012) of the series. The 2022 index is down compared to the 2021 index, but still higher than the 2020 index.
