Purpose
The purpose of collecting this data was to develop a picture of the general movement patterns of calamari, including an understanding of the relationship between the main fished populations of Great Oyster Bay and Mercury Passage, and also provide an understanding of the movement of squid in relation to spawning dynamics.

Resource lineage

Statement
Squid were tagged with VEMCO V9SC-2H coded pingers and data was collected on 81 VEMCO VR2 acoustic receivers. The mantle length (ML) was measured to the nearest 5 mm and the sex determined by observation of the reproductive organs through the semi-transparent mantle. A total of 59 sexually mature calamari were tagged within the Great Oyster Bay and Mercury Passage areas; females ranged in size from 180 to 395 mm ML and males from 210 to 470 mm ML; 16 calamari were tagged and released prior to the commencement of the 3 mo closed season, with the remainder tagged throughout the closed season until mid November.
