Analyzing the selectivity of gillnet fishing gear using two different mesh sizes, namely 3.5 and 4 inches. Gillnets of these mesh sizes are commonly used by fishermen in Fish Landing Base (PPI) Cikidang, Pangandaran Regency, West Jawa. A total of 8 fishing trips were conducted at the coastal waters around PPI Cikidang, Pangandaran Regency, West Java from August 2018 to January 2019  using gillnet fishing gear As for each trip, 2-3 times the operation of the tool is carried out. The operation of the fishing gear is carried out with the help of vessels measuring 2-3 Gross Tonnage (GT). The catch obtained was differentiated based on the main catch and bycatch and the amount is calculated for analysis of the proportion of the catch. Mackerel (Scomberomorus commerson) is caught as the main catch, the fork length was measured for analysis of the length frequency distribution and selectivity curves. The operation of gillnets with a mesh size of 3.5 inches obtained a higher proportion of bycatch compared to gillnets with a mesh size of 4 inches. In addition, the length distribution of mackerel caught by gillnets with a mesh size of 3,5 inches is smaller (27-49 cm FL) compared to a mesh size of 4 inches (40-55 cm FL). Based on the distribution of length distribution, gillnets with a mesh size of 3.5 inches are more dominant in catching mackerel in a smaller size class interval than gillnets with a mesh size of 4 inches. Meanwhile, based on the selectivity curve for the length of mackerel with a 50% chance of being caught, it shows that gillnets with a mesh size of 3.5 or 4 inches are selective in catching mackerel, this is because the chances of catching fish at more than L50 are high.

The purpose of this research was to determine the most selective mesh size of gillnet fishing gear for Pampus argenteus in coastal waters of Pangandaran Regency, West Java. Research on the selectivity of gillnet fishing gear was carried out in the coastal waters of Pangandaran, West Java Province, from August 2018 to January 2019. The method used in this research is experimental fishing, namely operating gillnet fishing gear directly in the fishing area with fishermen. The primary data collected was the measurement of the catch (fish weight, number, fork length, how the fish was caught, circumference (girth opercullum, maximum body girth). Meanwhile, the secondary data collected were supporting data from the Pangandaran District Fisheries and Marine Service, and literature study. In determining the sampling, the method used is the purposive sampling method. The operation of gillnets using 4.5 inches obtained a higher proportion of main catch (75%) than gillnets with a mesh size of 5 inches (44%). Gillnet with a mesh size of 4.5 inches, the silver pomfret caught was distributed between 17-22 cm in size with the highest mode in the 19 cm fork length. Unlike the gillnet fishing gear with a mesh size of 5 inches, the silver pomfret caught was distributed in the fork length range of 17-25 cm with the highest mode in the length class 19 cm fork length. mesh size 4.5 inches has a hanging ratio value of 0.51. Meanwhile, the 5 inch mesh size has a hanging ratio value of 0.54. Based on the length distribution, gillnets with a mesh size of 5 inches were more dominant in catching silver pomfret in a larger size class interval than gillnets with a mesh size of 4,5 inches. Based on the L50 value, both selective gillnets caught more fish at 50% second chance. The selectivity curve shows that gillnet fishing gear with a mesh size of 5 inches has more selective results than gillnets with a mesh size of 4.5 inches.

Selectivity is a fishing gear characteristic capable of catching fish of a specific size and species from the existing population distribution. Mesh size is one of the important factors that influence gillnets’ selectivity, because different length-classes of fish are caught by them. This report focuses on the selectivity of two mesh sizes of gillnets (8.89 cm and 10.16 cm) on mackerel's catch and constructing a gillnet in Sungailiat waters. Experimental fishing methods and selectivity analysis were used for the fishing gear’s more selective preparation, if the largest fishing ratio's value at the fork length (L) is high and the standard deviation value (S) is closer to 1. It is concluded that to be more selective a largest S (L) value of 0.999267194 at fork length (L=54.95 cm), and with a larger value of S (L) 0.997096071 and with (L=66.55 cm) for mesh Sizes 8.89 cm and 10.16 cm, respectively.

Scomberomorus commerson were collected on weekly basis during January 2012 to December 2014 at Mangalore Fishing Harbour. Stomach of 214 narrow barred Spanish mackerel measuring from 48 to 105 cm fork length (FL) for males and 45.5 to 115 cm FL for females were analysed to study their feeding habits. Fish with empty stomach were prevalent in almost all the months. Prey mainly comprised of fishes and crustaceans, with the fish component forming 99.9%. The index of relative importance (IRI) showed that the dominant prey were semi-digested fish remains (44.6%) of Sardinella longiceps (30.1%), Decapterus sp. (18.7%), whitebaits (2.5%), Rastrelliger kanagurta (1.5%) and Epinephelus spp. (1.1%), while Saurida sp. (0.7%), Megalaspis cordyla (0.5%), Scombroides sp. (0.2%) and shrimps (0.1%) were found occasionally in the gut. Index of stomach fullness (SFI) was 0.11 in August and 0.65 in January. Generally, SFI was higher during September to January and lower during February to August. The empty stomach ratio (ESR) ranged from 33.3% (August) to 92.3% (April).

The narrow-barred Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus commerson is an economically essential species; however, few studies have investigated its demographic structure in the northwestern Pacific, which includes Taiwan’s waters. This study examined the growth parameters, age composition, mortality, and sex ratio of S. commerson catches by examining sagittal otoliths and other biological data collected in a 3-year project from June 2018 to June 2021. The transverse sections of sagittal otoliths exhibited alternating translucent and opaque zones, in annual cycles, and this observation was validated by otolith edge analysis. Opaque zones began to form in October; the growth peaked in December and lasted until March. Growth parameters were estimated for female (L∞ = 144.1 cm fork length [FL], k = 0.39 y−1, to = −0.85 y) and male (L∞ = 136.0 cm FL, k = 0.32 y−1, to = −1.49 y) specimens. The maximum recorded FL, body weight, and age were 159.0 cm, 27 kg, and 9.2 y for female and 135.0 cm, 17.8 kg, and 7.2 y for male specimens. Rapid growth was observed for both sexes, with FL reaching 66.8 ± 14.2 cm in female specimens and 70.1 ± 11.0 cm in male specimens during the first year of life. An age–length key based on the direct otolith aging and FL dataset (N = 646) was used to estimate the age composition of 3-year catches measured at landing (N = 16,133). The results verified that the S. commerson currently caught in the central Taiwan Strait are mainly young fish aged 1+ to 2+ y. The estimated fishing mortality (0.27 y−1) and exploitation rate (0.30) suggested that overfishing was not occurring in this stock. The findings of this study have helped clarify the population dynamics of the S. commerson in the Taiwan Strait, and the biological parameters reported herein can aid the management and conservation to ensure the sustainability of this species in this region.

Abstract In response to perceived, but unknown variation among the size selection of narrow-barred Spanish mackerel (Scomberomorus commerson) by artisanal gillnetters off Iran, and the need for such data to control exploitation as a precursor to balanced harvesting, the effects of two common mesh sizes (130 and 140 mm stretched mesh opening made from multifilament twine) on catches were investigated over one fishing year (nine months encompassing autumn to spring). Both mesh sizes mostly caught S. commerson at fork lengths (FL) larger than mean sizes at maturity (>67 cm), with the mean size selection incrementally increasing in the 130-mm mesh gillnet from autumn, and especially during spring. The greater selection occurred concurrent with an increasing condition factor (CF) among S. commerson, which typically spawn in late spring/early summer. Conversely, the relative size-selection of the 140-mm mesh gillnet decreased in spring, attributed to increasing CF precluding the capture of larger fish. Such seasonal variation in size selection might be countered by increasing mesh size to ~145 or 150 mm in spring. However, the existing 140-mm mesh might positively affect stock biomass by allowing larger, more fecund fish to avoid capture during spawning. The data support the strong influence of biological and environmental factors on gillnet size selection, which might also extend to other migratory, pelagic species.

Jaring insang digolongkan sebagai alat tangkap yang ramah lingkungan mengingat ukuran ikan yang tertangkap dipengaruhi oleh ukuran mata jaring yang digunakan. Penelitian yang dilakukan selama 2013-2014 di perairan Kotania, Kabupaten Seram Bagian Barat bertujuan untuk menghitung kelimpahan ikan pada spektrum ukuran (abundance size-spectrum) berdasarkan habitat ikan pada waktu yang berbeda. Data dikumpulkan melalui logbook yang diisi oleh nelayan Dusun Pulau Osi dan Dusun Wael dengan daerah penangkapan di Teluk Kotania. Distribusi panjang ikan hasil tangkapan setiap mata jaring menunjukkan kisaran panjang yang tidak beraturan yang bisa menimbulkan selektivitas yang tidak konsisten. Ketidakpastian selektivitas jaring insang yang dioperasikan pada perairan dangkal disebabkan oleh perubahan pilihan habitat sebagai daerah penangkapan nelayan. Spektrum panjang menunjukkan distribusi panjang yang unimodal dengan jumlah ikan jenis ikan berukuran kecil tinggi dan menurun secara eksponensial untuk jenis ikan berukuran besar. Mengingat ikan besar mempunyai peranan penting dalam komunitas, dan kurang rentan terhadap jaring insang, kami menyimpulkan bahwa jaring insang adalah alat yang ramah lingkungan.EVALUATION OF GILLNET SELECTIVITY IN KOTANIA BAY, WEST PART OF SERAM. Gillnets are categorized as environmentally friendly fishing gear convinced by its selectivity. Study conducted at Kotania Bay, West Seram Regency, for two years (2012-2013) aimed to count the abundance size-spectrum on habitat for evaluating the catch of gillnets. Length distribution of catch for each mesh size showed irregular ranges, which may lead to selectivity uncertainties. Data was collected from logbooks filled by fishers from Osi Island and Wael. Uncertainty of gillnets selectivity which were operated in shallow waters was influenced by the fishers’ habitat preference that was distinct temporally. The size-spectra of exhibited unimodal length distribution with high catch of small-bodied species and lowered exponentially towards large-bodied species. As large- bodied species play important role in the community and they are less vulnerable to gillnets, we concluded that the practices of gillnet at Kotania Bay are environmentally friendly gear.

Salah satu masalah yang dihadapi dalam pemanfaatan sumberdaya ikan adalah kurang selektifnya berbagai jenis alat tangkap yang digunakan oleh para nelayan. Akibatnya adalah tertangkapnya ikan-ikan yang bukan menjadi tujuan penangkapan (bycatch) yang dalam prakteknya sebagian besar ikan-ikan tersebut dibuang ke laut (discarded catch). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menginventarisasi komposisi jenis dan ukuran ikan hasil tangkapandari alat tangkap bagan perahu dan bagan tancap.Lokasi penelitian di Kelurahan Oesapa sebagai sentra pemukiman nelayan bagan perahu danbagan tancap di Kota Kupang dan di Perairan Teluk Kupang.Penelitian ini dilakukan menggunakan metode survei dengan obyek penelitian yaitu: fakta, proses, histori, persepsi tentang perikanan bagan perahu, komposisi jenis dan ukuran ikan tangkapan yang meliputi identifikasi hasil tangkapan, berat (kilogram), jumlah (ekor), panjang cagak (fork length), keliling maksimum (maximum girth), dan lebar badan ikan. Cara mengukur panjang baku pada penelitian ini yaitu jarak garis lurus antara ujung bagian kepala yang paling depan (biasanya ujung salah satu dari rahang yang terdepan) sampai ke pelipatan pangkal sirip ekor.Hasil menunjukkan bahwa jenis ikan yang dominan tertangkap pada bagan perahu adalah ikan teri, peperek dan kembung, sedangkan pada bagan tancap ikan peperek, teri dan tembang. One of the problems faced in using fish resources is the lack of selectivity of various types of fishing gear used by fishermen. The result is the catch of fish which is not the purpose of arrest(bycatch) which in practice most of the fish are discarded catch. This study aims to identify and inventory the type and size offish catches (boat lift net and fix lift net). Research location in Oesapa village in Kupang City in Kupang Bay. This research was conducted by survey method with research object that is: fact, process, history, perception of fishery boat lift net, species composition and size of fish catch including identification of catch, weight (kilogram), number (tail), length of fork length, maximum girth, and fish body width, mesh size. The method of measuring the standard length in this study is the distance of a straight line between the tip of the front of the head (usually the tip of one of the leading jaws) to the tail fin's base. The results show that the dominant fish species in boat lift net are anchovies, pony fishes, and long-jawed mackereland, from fix lift net, are pony fishes, anchovy and sardine.
