SOUTH DEVON INSHORE POTTING AGREEMENT – TRAWLING AND CRABBING CHART 2023

The Inshore Potting Agreement (IPA) Trawling and Crabbing Chart is reviewed on an annual basis by members of the IPA Committee who represent the different fishing sectors that may be affected by any changes in management of the areas within the IPA off the South Devon coast.

The chart for 2023 has now been produced.

There are no changes to the chart in terms of time restrictions or spatial changes. However there have been a few changes to some of the points to align with D&S IFCA’s Mobile Fishing Permit Conditions. The points that have changed and now have new latitude and longitude co-ordinates are:

• Points 10, 11, G, D, H, I, J, K, L and M.
• There is an additional point 13a.

Please remember to use the chart in conjunction with D&S IFCA’s Mobile Fishing Permit Conditions and Annexes 3, 4 and 5, where further restrictions apply.
