AbstractTailor is a highly migratory fish with an iconic, mainly beach-based fishery on the Australian east coast. There is a pronounced annual, close-inshore run of large schools of tailor from New South Wales, where the fishery peaks in April–June, to Queensland where the Fraser Island fishery at the northern end of the run peaks in August–September. The commercial sector of the fishery developed over the first half of the 20th century while the recreational beach line sector grew strongly from the late 1940s, facilitated by rapid developments in recreational beach-fishing gear.
