Thanks to the latest Research & Monitoring Report for Cornwall's Sea Fisheries Committee, we now know that tagged lobsters released off the North Cornwall coast can travel 700 metres in one day. I've known some reporters who don't travel that far.

"The lobster demonstrating the greatest movement was released off the north coast and was recaptured approximately 14Km north鈥恮est of Cape Cornwall 148 days later having covered a distance of 104.3Km. In Mount's Bay, the furthest distance travelled was by one released near Mullion Cove, which rounded Lizard Point and was recaptured 50 days later having travelled approximately 14km. Another found its way from the middle of Mount's Bay to Lamorna Cove, having moved a similar distance but in the opposite direction."

It's stuff like this which shows why science should be firmly in the driving seat when it comes to determining fisheries policy. It's also fun.
