The Use of Gillnets for Estimation of Fish Stocks [PDF]
In this research it has been targeted to estimate fishable stocks of Karakaya Dam Lake (in Turkey) by using fishing with gillnets method that had been suggested as an alternative method for estimating fish stocks. Productivity per hectare in the dam lake and the amount of fishable stocks has been calculated to be 13.67 kg ha-1 and 312.005 kg year-1 ...

Bycatch in gillnets from lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) fisheries is an important conservation issue in the north Atlantic, with up to 30 000 seabirds potentially killed each year. To date, no technical solutions exist to reduce the bycatch of seabirds in

There is widespread evidence that small-scale fisheries (SSF) bycatch threatens many populations of small cetaceans, yet conservation efforts are often limited by a lack of basic knowledge regarding their abundance, distribution, and habitat use.

Gillnet selectivity for the north African catfish, Clarias gariepinus (Actinopterygii: Siluriformes: Clariidae), from the Upper Okavango Delta, Botswana [PDF]
Background. Successful fisheries management requires estimation of gillnet selectivity for optimum exploitation of the resource. In the Okavango Delta, no study has assessed the selectivity of gillnets for Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) which is an ...
