Focussed habitat sampling of macrohabitats (defined by bottom type, soft hard or rough) in Gabo and Howe Reef mesohabitats (key study areas presenting a variety of shelf habitats described by fishers) using gillnets from a commercial vessel. Gillnets were deployed and retrieved at dawn and dusk giving near equal day/night soaking times. 15 deployments (1 trial soak and 14 sampling stations) yielded ~0.5 t fish.
