China is the largest fishing gear market around globe at present, and export production are both first in world. Under influence of COVID-19 increasing publicity by we-media, has been favored more people. Although lure a relatively novel sport China, but its potential huge. Different from traditional methods, not introduced into for long, so translation names these gears vital importance. From ...

Size spectrum ecological models are representations of a community of individuals which grow and change trophic level. A key emergent feature of these models is the size spectrum; the total abundance of all individuals that scales negatively with size. The models we focus on are designed to capture fish community dynamics useful for assessing the community impacts of fishing.We present mizer, a...

Over 50% of the total bigeye tuna (BET) landed in the Western Central Pacific Ocean is caught incidentally in the purse seine fishery and sold for canning at prices less than US$2/kg. The remainder is landed in longline fisheries directed at BET and sold as fresh or frozen tuna at prices greater than US$10/kg. The combined fishing mortality by all gears will soon reduce the BET biomass in the P...

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been widely proposed as a fisheries management tool in addition to their conservation purposes. Despite this, few studies have satisfactorily assessed the dynamics of fishers' adaptations to the loss of fishing grounds. Here we used data from before, during and after the implementation of the management plan of a temperate Atlantic multiple-use MPA to examine ...

Change in behaviour is usually the first response to human-induced environmental change and key for determining whether a species adapts to environmental change or becomes maladapted. Thus, understanding the behavioural response to human-induced changes is crucial in the interplay between ecology, evolution, conservation and management. Yet the behavioural response to fishing activities has bee...

In 1984 and 1987, demersal trawl surveys of fish stocks in the western and central Gulf of Alaska were executed by the National Marine Fisheries Service in cooperation with the Fisheries Agency of Japan. Details of the survey design and sampling methods are presented. Fishing power differences resulted from differences among vessels, gears, and trawling procedures. Chartered fishing vessels fro...

At this time East Asian river prawn Macrobrachium nipponense is present almost everywhere in the lower reaches of Danube and Dniester basins, Danube-Dniester interfluves water bodies to east Dniester. Successful adaptation favorable climatic conditions recent years have provided a significant increase populations High growth rates M. been observed In these higher values maximum body length (mal...

In the midst of several management failures, marine reserves are seen as a potential management tool to control overexploitation. In the literature, both modelling and empirical work have demonstrated that closing an area to fishing would lead to an increase in biomass and mean body size within the reserve. Benefits, in the form of increased catch, outside the reserves are sometimes shown using...
