Abstract
Photographic and trawl surveys of scampi in SCI 6A were conducted in March 2013. Estimates of burrows were slightly lower than 2009, but estimates of scampi were comparable with the previous survey. Trawl catch rates were slightly higher than 2009, but comparable with 2007 and 2008. Over 6600 scampi were tagged and released, to investigate growth, with over 100 recaptures to date. Tag mortality was estimated. Scampi emergence patterns were investigated with acoustic tags.
