SO 5/87 (alternative identifier: SO198705)
Period: 1987-07-09 00:00 to 1987-07-22 00:00 Local
Duration: 13.00 days
Region: Tasmania (E and W)
Ship: Soela [details]
Description: Soela cruise SO 5/87 was undertaken to carry out an acoustic and demersal trawl survey for orange roughy in waters off eastern and western Tasmania, with particular reference to the St Patrick's Head and Sandy Cape orange roughy grounds. Cruise aims included to estimate, by acoustic survey, the volume of orange roughy schools found on the fishing grounds (no acoustic "marks" which could be positively attributed to orange roughy were detected on either ground); to determine, by target trawling, the density of orange roughy biomass in those schools (target trawling failed to verify the presence of fish associated with the "marks"); to investigate by pelagic trawling, the distribution of juvenile orange roughy and their relationship to adult schools (no juveniles were caught); to collect biological information on the roughy caught; to sample for orange roughy eggs and larvae if adults caught are in spawning or spent condition (adult roughy off St Patrick's head were nearing spawning condition but not close enough to attempt any sampling for eggs or larvae); to collect environmental data when appropriate, particularly salinity samples between Storm Bay and Sandy Cape; to collect bathymetric data to improve existing charts (no improvements were made to existing charts) and to sample for blue grenadier larvae.
