Metabarcoding gillnets to assess unaccounted catch depredation or escape [PDF]
Environmental DNA, 2022 Gillnets are the world's most common net‐based fishing gear, comprising walls of light mesh designed to entangle fish. Gillnets are often retrieved with holes in the netting, which means some animals escape or are depredated unseen, but with some ...

Fishing efficiency of biodegradable PBSAT gillnets and conventional nylon gillnets used in Norwegian cod (Gadus morhua) and saithe (Pollachius virens) fisheries [PDF]
ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2018 Fishing trials were carried out to compare the relative fishing efficiency of gillnets made of a new biodegradable resin (polybutylene succinate co-adipate-co-terephthalate, PBSAT) with conventional (nylon) nets.

Effect of gillnet mesh size on the capture probability and capture patterns in the Asian paddle crab (Charybdis japonica) fishery [PDF]
HeliyonIn the Asian paddle crab (Charybdis japonica) gillnet fishery in the Yellow Sea, China, the minimum mesh size (MMS) regulation has been of a major importance due to high bycatch rates of undersized crabs. In this study, we evaluated how gillnet mesh size

Biomass and abundance biases in European standard gillnet sampling.
PLoS ONE, 2015 The European Standard EN 14757 recommends gillnet mesh sizes that range from 5 to 55mm (knot-to-knot) for the standard monitoring of fish assemblages and suggests adding gillnets with larger mesh sizes if necessary.

Experimental study of ghost fishing by gillnets in Laguna Verde Valparaíso, Chile
Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2014 In 2010, two experiments were carried out in order to study ghost fishing generated by lost or abandoned gillnets. The first experiment was aimed to identify and quantify the number of captured specimens in intentionally abandoned gillnet between 45 and ...

Rate and causes of lost gillnets in the Pangandaran Waters of Indonesia
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2022 Ghost gear is one part of marine debris interpreted as abandoned, lost, or otherwise discarded fishing gear in the waters. A gillnet is the fishing gear with the greatest potential to cause ghost gear.

Buoys with looming eyes deter seaducks and could potentially reduce seabird bycatch in gillnets
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 Bycatch of seabirds in gillnet fisheries is a global conservation issue with an estimated 400 000 seabirds killed each year. To date, no underwater deterrents trialled have consistently reduced seabird bycatch across operational fisheries.
