Prawns

Southern Prawns

 

Our company owns or controls prawn fishing licences in Onslow, Broome and Nickol Bay. Prawns are Australia’s third most valuable fishing industry.

The species of prawn that we catch include:

  • Tiger
  • King
  • Endeavour
  • Banana

The prawn fishery is managed by Department of Fisheries with a view to ensure its long term environment and economic sustainability. The fishery is managed in “real time” because the yearly cycle of the fishery changes for one year to another depending on the environmental conditions.
