Highlight ResearchThe Set Net was identified and recorded.Length and weight of the catch of set net was analyzed. AbstractSet net fisheries are made according to traditional fishing gears method in the coastal waters of Sungai Sembilang, Selangor, Peninsular Malaysia. These fisheries system are the passive structure of gear used to catch fish that swim in shallow water with muddy substrate. This study focused on determining the species variety and the possible future of set net fisheries in Sungai Sembilang. Catch composition of set net was investigated based on the catch data during July to December 2020 and continued from January to February 2021. The catch data was recorded by a research assistant on site during fishing season. The data consist of species, length and weight of all catches recorded. Total catch of 60 fish species belonging to 23 families were captured during this study period. Ariidae (31.73%), Clupeidae (11.56%), and Scatophagidae (7.96%) were determined as dominant families caught this set net. The total dominant catch amount of species Plicofollis argyropleuron (18.71%), Nemapteryx caelata (9.96%), and Anodontostoma chacunda (8.92%) compromised 37.6% of the total catch. This type of fishing gear can be used by local fisherman to catch fishes and can prevent trawl net from come closer to the shore. This study would provide some general useful information about the status of set net fisheries as well as the species abundance caught from the set net.

AbstractShark-like batoids (Order Rhinopristiformes) are normally taken as incidental catch in fisheries targeting other species, one exception is a poorly understood Indonesian tangle net fishery. Market surveys of Muara Angke landing port recorded landed catch for this fishery. Recent catch data from Indonesian Capture Fisheries (2017 – 2018) were also examined to provide contemporary information. During the market surveys, 1,559 elasmobranchs were recorded, comprised of 24 species of batoids and nine species of sharks. The most abundant were pink whiprayPateobatis faiand bottlenose wedgefishRhynchobatus australiae, the latter being the main target species. Catch composition differed between individual tangle net boat landings, likely reflecting different fishing grounds, seasonal variation and potential localised declines in species over time. The fishery is highly selective for larger size classes, but smaller size classes of target species are also caught in high numbers in other Indonesian fisheries such as trawl, small mesh gillnet, and hand- and long-line fisheries. As of July 2018, the tangle net fishery was still operating, but few wedgefish were caught and the main landed catch was stingrays. Evidence of substantial and rapid declines in landings of wedgefish species, raises concerns about the status of shark-like batoids and stingrays in Indonesia.

This study is focused on evaluating the trace metal levels in water and tissues of two commercial fish species Arius thalassinus and Pennahia anea that were collected from Kapar and Mersing coastal waters. The concentrations of Fe, Zn, Al, As, Cd and Pb in these coastal waters and muscle, liver and gills tissues of the fishes were quantified. The relationship among the metal concentrations and the height and weight of the two species were also examined. Generally, the iron has the highest concentrations in both water and the fish species. However, Cd in both coastal waters showed high levels exceeding the international standards. The metal level concentration in the sample fishes are in the descending order livers > gills > muscles. A positive association between the trace metal concentrations and weight and length of the sample fishes was investigated. Fortunately the level of these metal concentrations in fish has not exceeded the permitted level of Malaysian and international standards.

This study describes shore-based competitive fishing events in Ilhéus, southern Bahia (Brazil), including catch composition, and provides information on the profile of recreational fishers participating in these events. Information was collected in all events promoted by the Clube de Pesca de Ilhéus (CLUPESIL) in 2007-2008. A total of 26 competitive fishing events were organized during this period, with 47 species caught. The top species were: Cathorops spixii, Menticirrhus littoralis, Trachinotus goodei, Eucinostomus melanopterus, Polydactylus virginicus, Atherinella brasiliensis, and Eucinostomus argenteus. These seven species represented 87% of the total catch in number and 78% in weight. Menticirrhus littoralis and Polydactylus virginicus are species of commercial interest and their catch was dominated by juveniles. Local recreational fishers were predominately middle-aged men, who tended to use small hooks and mainly shrimp as bait. They were consumption-oriented, but also released small fishes. During competitions, fishers used even smaller hooks. Most of them perceived shrimp trawling as the main factor affecting recreational fisheries. The use of larger hooks and a minimum size of 20 cm are suggested to decrease the capture of juveniles, mainly those of commercial importance. This study sets a baseline from which new studies can be proposed to access the current status of local recreational fisheries.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the escape gap of cylinder folding trap on catch per unit effort (CPUE), trap rate, composition, and size of fish caught in the coastal waters of Tuban Regency. The research was conducted in November 2019 by deploying 60 units in ten experimental fishing trips at different locations. The traps were 20 units without escape gap, 20 units with an escape gap of 3 cm x 6 cm, and 20 units with an escape gap of 4 cm x 7 cm. Overall, the experiments resulted in a collection of 22 species of marine organisms, such as swimming crabs (33% of total weight), snails, shrimps, crabs, fishes (55% of total weight), and cuttlefish. The highest CPUE was found for the traps with escape gaps of 4 cm x 7 cm, i.e., 9.18 gr/trap/trip. There was no significant difference in the total catch, the weight of catches, trap rate, and catch per unit effort (CPUE) among the three types of traps.

Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management

Fish community structure (FCS) of the Yellow Sea (YS) is affected by multiple pressures. Quantifying the responses of indicators of FCS (IFCSs) to pressures is a key aspect of ecosystem-based fisheries management. Quantitative methodology has hitherto been rarely applied to evaluate the performance of ecological indicators in response to physical and anthropogenic pressures and management actions. In this study, we adopted a quantitative and flexible framework to quantify the performance of IFCSs in the YS as well as to identify a suite of operational IFCSs to evaluate the status of the FCS via two state-space approaches. A total of 22 IFCSs were tested for their responses to three types of pressures including anthropogenic activities (fishing), large-scale climate change, and regional environmental variables. Our results indicate that the majority of IFCSs have good performance in terms of sensitivity in their responses to pressures, but weak performance in terms of robustness. The IFCSs tend to respond stronger to fishing than to large-scale climatic indices and regional environmental indices both in terms of sensitivity and robustness. A final indicator suite of five best-performing IFCSs was identified. The five IFCSs include total catch (ToC), mean trophic level (MTL), the ratio of catch of large predatory groups to total catch (LPC/ToC), mean temperature of catch (MTC) [or alternatively catch of small pelagic groups (SPC)], and functional evenness based on thermal groups (T-J′FD), all of which show regime shift patterns consistent with climate change. Compared to a reference period (1960–1964), the status of the current FCS has been obviously changed, and the long-term trajectories of the final indicator suite is consistent with that of fishing pressure. This study demonstrates the applicability of the indicator-testing framework in appraising the status of FCS, and facilitates moving towards ecosystem-based fisheries management in the YS.
