Western Australian fishing ban

Show me evidence that Chinese fishing vessels and overfishing are the cause of NW Australia's demersal population decline when this fish is not migratory.

Pink Sapper are one of several Demensal fish.

A large distributionPink snapper are found in coastal waters off China, Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, New Zealand and Australia. In Australia snapper range from around Karratha in WA along the southern half of the continent to southern Queensland
In some locations, pink snapper gather seasonally to spawn in large schools called ‘aggregations’. The best known of these spawning aggregations occur in Shark Bay and in Cockburn and Warnbro sounds off the Perth metropolitan area.

Creaky just told you in a post above that Asian overfishing is not the issue there.

And I cited several sources that for all species of demersal fish found off Australia China is a threat.

Creaky lives there and he says it's not China!

REPORT: ILLEGAL FISHING AND LABOR ABUSE RAMPANT IN CHINA’S INDIAN OCEAN FLEETElizabeth Claire Alberts, Mongabay

https://www.savingseafood.org/news/inter...ean-fleet/

The report authors say the Chinese distant-water fleet’s behaviors pose a “serious threat to the sustainability of global fisheries and the wellbeing of fishers, and the millions of people who rely on the ocean for their livelihoods” and also undermine “good governance and the rule of national laws and international regulation in fisheries.” The authors also shine a light on China’s substantial investment in the blue economy in the Southwest Indian Ocean region, including the building of ports and fisheries infrastructure, which they say may make “heavily indebted countries … feel obligated to allow Chinese business ventures to access [marine] resources,” to the detriment of the environment and local communities.

Over the fact China is the largest and most aggressive fishing fleet in the world destroying fishing habits and depleting the world’s oceans and seas directly and indirectly.

That is not the topic of this thread and you have been told this by myself and the thread creator. Start your own thread on China's aggressive fishing fleet and have at it.

And I have cited and quoted that China’s massive effort to rape the world’s seas has hurt the Australian Western Coast.  Directly and indirectly.  

It’s not hard to look up..


 



It’s not hard to figure out that China’s aggressive encroaching fishing tactics directly and indirectly hurts Australia and the ocean has a whole.

As quoted for you already



“For this example, we use the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) global fishing fleet. China’s global fishing footprint could number as many as 57,000 industrial fishing vessels and account for more than 44 per cent of the world’s visible fishing activity between 2022 and 2024, according to non-profit ocean conservation organisation Oceana.To legally station such a civilian armada off Australia’s northern approaches or even along its coastal areas could have profound consequences for the economy and even Australia’s national spirit, which is tied to the fishing ecosystem, beaches and national icons, such as the Great Barrier Reef.”

The Chinese are destroying habits, decimating fish populations that are food for other fish, and overfishing when fish are in migratory swims for spawning.  It’s not hard to see the direct and indirect impacts unless you are a blind shill for China.
