Design and Operation of “Siklob”, a Mechanised Falling Gear Operated in Northern Iloilo, Philippines
Fisheries in the Philippines is multispecies, and this is seen with the wide variety of fishing gears used in major and minor fishing grounds in the country. These gears constantly face modification and development to improve catch quality, quantity, and

Fisheries management based on gear selectivity of a tropical reservoir, Lake Nasser, Egypt
Lake Nasser, a large man-made tropical reservoir, is located in the southern part of Egypt. The lakes’ fisheries have undergone a steady decrease during the last 10 years obscuring its potential for sustainability. Fisheries assessment study based on the

Trap Happiness and Catch Bias in Sea Lamprey Traps
Sampling fish by trapping can lead to biased conclusions about a population. We used catch data to assess differences between two types of traps for adult sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus), submerged-funnel traps and studded-tile traps, which are angled ...

Predicting reference points and associated uncertainty from life histories for risk and status assessment [PDF]
To assess status of fish populations and the risks of overexploitation, management bodies compare fishing mortality rates and abundance estimates with reference points (RP).

Assessment of a small-scale fishery: Lane Snapper (Lutjanus synagris) using a length metric method.
Small-scale fisheries are hard to assess because of the limited availability of data. Therefore, a method requiring easy-to-obtain catch-data is important for the assessment and management of small-scale fisheries.

Using tickler chains to promote more environmentally benign trawls in an Australian penaeid fishery
There has been an increasing emphasis on reducing the environmental impacts of penaeid trawls by modifying their anterior sections. In one Australian estuary, this approach has culminated in a new generic trawl comprising a slightly smaller mesh size ...

Refining tickler chains for penaeid trawls
Tickler chains are simple additions to the ground gears of benthic trawls that can improve the catches of some target species, albeit with considerable variability.
