Abstract
A trial of video observation in the SNA 1 trawl fishery collected footage from two cameras onboard each vessel. Footage was reviewed according to a standardised protocol and volumetric estimates of sub-MLS snapper weight made. These showed a high level of concordance with the catch estimates reported by the participating vessels under the SNX reporting code. The trial is considered to have been successful, providing a rich new source of information for use in management of the fishery.
