Trap Happiness and Catch Bias in Sea Lamprey Traps
Fishes, 2019 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 ...

Scientia Marina, 2019 The choice of fishing gear and catching strategy should be taken into consideration in the management of fish stocks. Here, paired fishing trials in a pelagic recreational fishery compared the catch composition, catch rate and size selectivity between ...

ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2019 When size-selective fishing removes faster-growing individuals at higher rates than slower-growing fish, the surviving populations will become dominated by slower-growing individuals.

Ecosphere, 2020 Control of long‐established invasive species to aid threatened native species presents major logistic and economic challenges. Invasive common carp (Cyprinus carpio) recently accounted for over 90% of the fish biomass in Utah Lake (Utah, USA), driving ...

Assessment of a small-scale fishery: Lane Snapper (Lutjanus synagris) using a length metric method.
PLoS ONE, 2021 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
Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2023 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
Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2022 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.

Sampling a Littoral Fish Assemblage: Comparison of Small-Mesh Fyke Netting and Boat Electrofishing [PDF]
, 2007 We compared small-mesh (4-mm) fyke netting and boat electrofishing for sampling a littoral fish assemblage in Muskegon Lake, Michigan. We hypothesized that fyke netting selects for small-bodied fishes and electrofishing selects for large-bodied fishes ...

Revista Ambiente & Água, 2021 Selectivity is a fishing gear characteristic capable of catching fish of a specific size and species from the existing population distribution. Mesh size is one of the important factors that influence gillnets’ selectivity, because different length ...

Discard Avoidance by Improving Fishing Gear Selectivity: Helping the Fishing Industry Help Itself
The European Landing Obligation, 2018 To address the challenges of the Landing Obligation, fishers need to be able to adjust the selective performance of each fishing operation in response to what they observe on the fishing grounds and to what they bring on board.
