SCRC: Could harvests from abalone stocks be increased through better management of the size limit / quota interaction?

Abalone fishery assessments are very basic relative to other fisheries of comparable value and provide only general guidance for management. Consequently, management of the stock tends to evolve through adaptive management in response to year-to-year trends in catch and catch-rate trends, and...
