Southern elephant seals (Mirounga leonina Linn.) depredate toothfish longlines in the midnight zone. [PDF]
Humans have devised fishing technologies that compete with marine predators for fish resources world-wide. One such fishery for the Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) has developed interactions with a range of predators, some of which are ...

Hookpod-mini: a smaller potential solution to mitigate seabird bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries
Hookpods are an emerging technology designed to reduce seabird bycatch in pelagic longline fisheries. Hookpod-minis were trialled in the New Zealand surface longline fishery in 2016-2017 during short-term experimental (20 longline sets) and longer-term ...

Foraging Strategies of Laysan Albatross Inferred from Stable Isotopes: Implications for Association with Fisheries. [PDF]
Fatal entanglement in fishing gear is the leading cause of population decline for albatross globally, a consequence of attraction to bait and fishery discards of commercial fishing operations.

Big catch, little sharks: Insight into Peruvian small‐scale longline fisheries [PDF]
AbstractShark take, driven by vast demand for meat and fins, is increasing. We set out to gain insights into the impact of small‐scale longline fisheries in Peru. Onboard observers were used to document catch from 145 longline fishing trips (1668 fishing days) originating from Ilo, southern Peru.

Contributions of small‐scale and longline fishing to sea turtle mortality in the Solomon Islands
A focus of sea turtle management has been reducing bycatch in commercial fisheries, but sustainable harvest for consumption is also an important objective in many nations. Identifying how much different fisheries contribute to turtle mortality could help

Study on the catch, bycatch and discard of Chinese pelagic longline fisheries in the Atlantic Ocean
Catch, bycatch and discard information is important for the assessment and management of fisheries. Using Chinese pelagic tuna longline observer data from 2010 to 2018, we studied the catch composition in the Chinese pelagic tuna longline fisheries in ...
