Scallop season opens tomorrow

Thu, 31 Oct 2019


Scallop season will open from tomorrow.

During the seven month season, licensed vessels will be permitted to land a total of 2,049 tonnes of king scallops.

The daily catch limit per vessel will be 560kg at the start of the season, which will be actively monitored by IOM Government.

This will be reviewed after four weeks and may be changed in response to fishery data and market conditions.

The closed area at Targets remains in place, whilst the closed area at Chickens has been redefined.

A closure period during the festive season will take effect from 22 December this year until 3 January 2020.
