Statistical data set
August effort statistics 2021
Statistics on effort use in the Western Waters areas for a given month are made available on or after the 15th of the next month. Please note that from 2021 onwards Western Waters effort is only counted for activities within British Fisheries Limits, as such the method used to calculate these statistics differs to that used in the years before 2021 and as such these statistics cannot be compared.
