This paper presents an update of the standardisation of the abalone CPUE for Zone F using a GLMM approach proposed by Brandão and Butterworth (2012), which adds new data for the 2014/15 fishing “years” for that Zone. The standardised CPUE indices have been fairly stable since the 2007/08 fishing “year”, and show a slight increase in the latest year.
