Depth was a highly significant factor associated to the density of jigs in all periods (p<0.001; except in Year 1 when it was marginally non-significant).

Overall, the distance to port significantly influenced fisher’s behaviour in the Before period and Year 1 (p<0.05), whereas depth influenced effort density allocation in all periods (Year 1: p<0.05; Years 2, 3, After: p<0.001), although in the Before period it was marginally non-significant (p = 0.055).
