Cefas awarded a contract to RE & CJ Chapman for a study on the discard survival of sea bass, conducted between September and December 2019.

The work involved up to 14 days of fishing under charter, capturing sea bass using normal commercial trawl practices to record the condition and health state of individual bass.

Live bass deemed likely to survive were tagged with electronic tags and released back to sea to provide evidence of post-discard survival.

Up to three scientists were onboard the vessel, requiring approximately two square metres of clear deck space for scientific procedures during fishing operations.

The contract value was AUD 13,440.
