Updated GLMM standardised trotline CPUE series for the toothfish resource in the Prince Edward Islands EEZ to include data up to the 2020 season

An updated GLMM standardisation of trotline toothfish CPUE data is presented which includes new data for the 2020 “fishing”-year. After a marked decrease in CPUE from 2015 to 2017, there has been a notable increase in the 2018 index, which is close to the larger values estimated for the first four years (2010-2013) of the series. Since 2018, the indices show a decline, but are still higher than the lowest values of the index for 2016 and 2017.
