The recent advent of agent-based modeling (ABM) and the availability of software platforms for its implementation offer a powerful alternative to model the spatio-temporal behaviors of a fishery with the consideration of heterogeneity and interactivity. This paper describes a prototype agent-based fishery management model of Hawaii’s longline fishery. The model simulates the daily fishing activ...

Sources of fisheries information outside fishery-independent surveys (e.g. fishery-dependent data) are especially valuable for species that support productive and lack reliable biological information, such as the northern shortfin squid ( Illex illecebrosus ). Fishery-dependent data streams available most species, however collaboration with industry members is critical to ensure these collected...
