Cuttlefish are a commercially important species for both inshore and offshore fisheries operating off the south and south-west coasts of the UK. The unique lifestyle of the cuttlefish makes it vulnerable to overexploitation during its key life stages. There is currently no national-level management in place for cuttlefish fisheries, although regional measures provide some form of protection. Collaboration between the fisheries, research, and policy sectors is key to inform and develop a sustainable, long-term cuttlefish fisheries management plan. The Cuttlefish Symposium outputs and follow up workshop in 2022 will contribute to the development of UK and regional management measures to safeguard cuttlefish populations and support sustainable fisheries.
