A Novel Longline That Can Be Used By a Single Crew in the Aegean Sea: Solo Longline

open access: yesÇanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Journal of Marine Sciences and Fisheries, 2020
This short paper presents an innovation on the use of a bottom longline with only a single crew on a fishing boat in the Aegean Sea. The mainline was 0.80 mm in diameter and 75 m in length, with branch lines of 0.45 mm in diameter and 70 cm in length. Distance between two adjacent branch lines was 7 m.

Relative abundance of derelict fishing gear in the Hawaii-based pelagic longline fishery grounds as estimated from fishery observer data

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Derelict fishing gear (DFG) is abundant across the remote North Pacific Ocean, accumulating in convergence zones that coincide with the fishing grounds of the Hawai’i-based pelagic longline fishery.

Analysis of Sea Turtle Bycatch by Andalusia Pelagic Longline Fleet in the Northeast Atlantic

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Northeast Atlantic is one of the most crucial foraging grounds for juvenile loggerhead (Caretta caretta) and leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea), while also serving as an important fishing area for the Andalusia surface longline fishery. The main aim of present study is to assess the sea turtle interaction with the Andalusia pelagic

Addressing illegal longlining and ghost fishing in the Galapagos marine reserve: an overview of challenges and potential solutions

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Despite regulations aimed at curbing shark finning and bycatch, shark fishing mortality rates continue to escalate, partly due to unintended consequences of these policies which, along with illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing and ghost fishing ...

Age and growth of swordfish (Xiphias gladius) caught by the Hawaii-based pelagic longline fishery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We verified the age and growth of swordfish (Xiphias gla-dius) by comparing ages determined from annuli in fin ray sections with daily growth increments in otoliths.

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Submersion of the system «anchor-tightrope» of longline

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2017
A hydrodynamic problem for the longline system «anchor-tightrope» in resting fluid is formulated and solved on base of the theory of dynamics for systems with variable mass.

Slow sink rate in floated-demersal longline and implications for seabird bycatch risk.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Bycatch of birds in longline fisheries is a global conservation issue, with between 160,000-320,000 seabirds killed each year, primarily through being caught and drowned as they attempt to snatch baits off hooks as they are set.
