Metabarcoding gillnets to assess unaccounted catch depredation or escape [PDF]
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 ...

Comparison of fishing efficiency between biodegradable gillnets and conventional nylon gillnets [PDF]
Abstract Gillnets made of a new biodegradable resin (polybutylene succinate co-adipate-co-terephthalate (PBSAT) were tested under commercial fishing conditions to compare their fishing performance with that of conventional nylon (PA) nets. The relative catch efficiency between the two gillnet types was evaluated over the entirewinter fishing season ...

Evidence of hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) depredation on fish caught in gillnets
Bycatch is a major global threat to marine megafauna and occurs in nearly all fishing fleets, including small-scale fisheries that use gillnets. Gillnets represent a threat to endangered air-breathing megafauna, who incidentally entangle in bottom-set ...

Comparative selectivity of monofilament and multifilament gillnets for pearl mullet, Alburnus tarichi (Actinopterygii, Cypriniformes, Alburninae), in Lake Van [PDF]
Approximately 25% of annual inland capture fish production in Türkiye is from pearl mullet, Alburnus tarichi (Güldenstädt, 1814), which is an endemic species to the Lake Van Basin.

Effect of gillnet mesh size on the capture probability and capture patterns in the Asian paddle crab (Charybdis japonica) fishery [PDF]
In 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
