AFMA in collaboration with the Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) of the Department of the Environment, and the fishing industry, undertook a study on the impact on the survival of live baits with line weights close to the hook. Line weights are a form of seabird bycatch mitigation for pelagic longline fishing designed to sink baited hooks rapidly out of reach of seabirds. The trial was undertaken on a commercial tuna and billfish fishing vessel operating on the south coast of NSW, within the Eastern Tuna and Billfish Fishery (ETBF) during October, November and December of 2012.
