This instrument caps total fishing gear in the Southern Squid Jig Fishery at 800 standard squid jigging machines for the 2006 fishing year and requires commercial permit holders to keep their combined fleet’s jigging units below that limit.

It limits fishing capacity (not catch weight) as a conservation tool to prevent overfishing and sustain the squid stock.
