2004 - 2004 Centre for Environment, Fisheries & Aquaculture Science (Cefas) 2004 Devon Coast Lobster Maturity Study

Abstract

A sample of 91 females and 37 male lobsters was collected on 29th September 2004 at sea from Ilfracombe in Devon. Samples were captured using parlour pots and were size stratified within the limits of what was available in the catch. The targets were as follows: 5 in each 5mm carapace length (CL) size group for the males and for females below 70mm and above 105mm. For females between 70 and 105mm CL size grouping the target was 10 in each. Some store-potted animals were available but undersized lobsters were from that days catch.
