Fish species opting for a sea change are making Tassie fishers happy

In the past few years, however, he's seen his catch rate jump."I've actually caught over 200 [snapper] per season, so it just shows you how much the species has exploded in Tasmania," he said.

"The whiting is another emerging species; it's a fish that's always been in Tasmania like the snapper, but the last few years it's really exploded and it's a very common fish now."His experience hooking more warm-water fish in Tasmanian waters is backed up by new research from the Institute of Marine and Antarctic Studies .

The research found that yellowtail kingfish were present in Tasmanian waters between October and May as small immature fish, while snapper were present year-round and there were reproductively mature adults. "Across all scenarios there's little evidence for any ecosystem collapse should these species extend their range and increase their abundance," Dr Graba-Landry said.

Framing this as a lighthearted good news story is an absolutely psychotic betrayal of everything that journalism is supposed to do.

The fish must have loved being yanked out of the sea by a piece of steel in its mouth

A whole story about increasing seawater temperature affecting fish species and not one reference to actual measured temperatures over time. I wonder why?

Well that's got rid of the salmon let's take care of this lot..

“sea change” is an interesting way to put the migration of species due to warming sea temps caused by climate change. Let’s not try to make the disastrous affects to habitats cute.

Doesn’t make the fish happy.

There's nothing new about catching red snapper or King George whiting around Tasmania ... nothing.

So the climate is still creating positives all round then.🎣😎👍
