Recompression Improves Release Success in Pollack (Pollachius pollachius): A Step Towards Assessing Post Release Mortality in a Recreational Fishery

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The recreational fishery for pollack (Pollachius pollachius) in the northeast Atlantic is impacted by the species' high sensitivity to barotrauma. When captured at depth and brought to the surface, gas expansion within the peritoneal cavity can cause a variety of injuries and hinder release.

Effects of the Invasive Round Goby on Swedish Recreational Fishing Values

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The round goby, an invasive fish from the Black and Caspian Seas, has spread to Swedish waters, threatening recreational fisheries. We modeled impacts on the future recreational fishery in Sweden using data from a recreational fishing survey, and estimated effects of the round goby on other fish species. Values attached to recreational fishing

Examining the Impact of Derelict Pots on Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) Catch and Harvest Within a Recreational Fishery

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...

Estimating Total Post‐Release Mortality in a Boat‐Based Recreational Fishery

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Catch‐and‐release angling is widespread in marine recreational fisheries resulting from the implementation of enforced minimum legal sizes and increasing uptake of voluntary release. This makes recreational fisheries selective, with high release rates in certain cases.
