    Abstract

    Following the successful earlier start of the Dissostichus eleginoides fishing season in Subarea 48.3 (26th April in 2009/10 and 21st April in 2010/11) this paper summarises the results of the past two seasons and proposes moving the beginning of the fishing season to the 21st April with a further two five day extensions over the next two years to the 16th and then the 11th April.
