The financial importance of the south Devon crab fishery was highlight by landings of 17,800 tonnes in 2010 (£18.9 million), approximately 59% of total UK crab landings. In recent years crab landings have increased and as such Bannister (2009) recommended ‘a precautionary approach to future crab fishing’ and ‘the setting of management objectives to prevent any further increase in fishing mortality’. It is the responsibility of the MMO to achieve this as part of the EU target of setting catch limits to accomplish Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) in all fisheries by 2020. Despite this aims the authorities responsible for the enforcement measures to achieve MSY are grossly under-resourced. Thus an innovative and inexpensive method to create sus...
