Three trap designs evaluated for a deepwater lionfish fishery
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 A deepwater (>40 m) fishery for invasive lionfish (Pterois volitans/miles) offers a potential means to control invasive lionfish densities and mitigate their impacts on reefs too deep for SCUBA removals. Trapping could provide a scalable solution—if an effective fishing gear with minimal environmental impacts could be permitted and adopted by ...

A field-based investigation of behavioural interactions between invasive green crab (Carcinus maenas), rock crab (Cancer irroratus), and American lobster (Homarus americanus) in southern Newfoundland [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Marine species invasions pose a global threat to native biodiversity and commercial fisheries. The European green crab (Carcinus maenas) is one of the most successful marine invaders worldwide and has, in the last decade, invaded the southern and western

THE EFFECT OF USING DIFFERENT BAIT TYPES TO CATCH BLUE SWIMMING CRABS USING TRAPS IN BETAHWALANG WATERS OF DEMAK REGENCY [PDF]
Russian Journal of Agricultural and Socio-Economic Sciences, 2023 The catching of blue swimming crabs in Betahwalang Village, Demak Regency was carried out using traps. The fishing process requires bait to lure the crab into the trap. In Betahwalang Village there is a crab processing plant which produces quite a lot of

Technological creep masks continued decline in a lobster (Homarus gammarus) fishery over a century
Scientific Reports, 2022 Fishery-dependent data are frequently used to inform management decisions. However, inferences about stock development based on commercial data such as Catch-Per-Unit-Effort (CPUE) can be severely biased due to a phenomenon known as technological creep ...
