ABSTRACT Fish Traps on Ancient Shores By Eric Stephen White Dr. Barbra Roth, Examination Committee Chair Professor of Anthropology University of Nevada, Las Vegas Archaeological investigations associated with the Lake Cahuilla fish traps have been restricted due to the lack of excavation and experimentation. This thesis addresses a new line of researches, which incorporates not only experimentation and excavation, but also the combination of fish trap design and fish behavior, to more fully explain the working mechanics of ancient fish traps. Not only are these issues examined, but other natural phenomenon, that affect the archaeological record, and its understanding are examined. This thesis relies heavily on biology for its conclusions.

Fac. Fish., Kagoshima Univ. Vol.29 pp. 81-121 (1980) Fishing Methods and Gears in Panay Island, Philippines*1 Gunzo Kawamura*2 and Teodora Bagarinao*3 Abstract The authors surveyed the fishing methods and gears in Panay and smaller neighboring islands in the Philippines in September-December 1979 and in March-May 1980. This paper is a report on the fishing methods and gears used in these islands, with special focus on the traditional and primitive ones. The term "fishing" is commonly used to mean the capture of many aquatic animals — fishes, crustaceans, mollusks, coelenterates, echinoderms, sponges, and even birds and mammals. Moreover, the harvesting of algae underwater or from the intertidal zone is often an important job for the fishermen. Fishing method is the manner by which the aquatic organisms are captured or collected; fishing gear is the implement developed for the purpose. Oftentimes, the gear alone is not sufficient and auxiliary instruments have to be used to realize a method. A fishing method can be applied by means of various gears, just as a fishing gear can sometimes be used in the appli cation of several methods. Commonly, only commercial fishing is covered in fisheries reports. Although traditional and primitive fishing is done on a small scale, it is still very important from the viewpoint of supply of animal protein.

GUIDE TO THE CLASSIFICATION OF FISHING GEAR IN THE PHILIPPINES By AGUSTIN F. UMALI, Ichthyologist Illustrations by Silas G. Duran RESEARCH REPORT 17 Fish and Wildlife Service, Albert M. Day, Director United States Department of the Interior, Oscar L. Chapman, Secretary UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE : 1950 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, United States Government Printing Office Washington 25, D. C. - Price 40 cents ABSTRACT One of the serious handicaps in the administration and manage­ ment of the fisheries of the Philippines has been the lack of standardized nomenclature for fishing gear. This publication attempts to solve the problem. It is divided into five parts: The first presents a basic clas­ sification of fishing gear; the second is a key by means of which fishing gear can be identified and new terms for fishing gear can be properly classified; the third defines and illustrates various types of fishing gear; the fourth is a tabular classification of local Filipino di­ alect names; and the fifth is a glossary including definitions of more than a thousand terms.

  • Fishing the Port in January 2019
    W.O.C. Fishing the Port of West Sacramento and the D.W.S.C. January Species: Striped Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Largemouth Bass, Sturgeon. General: This is one of the “slow” months as the water is cold and often dirty. Bait fishing (live or dead), throwing lures and jigging will generally do better than trolling. Water temperature/clarity & likely depth(s) fish will be at: 46 to 50-degrees, clear to dirty, 4’ to the bottom. Best time to fish: 60-90 minutes before and after a tide change. Go to http://washingtonoutboardclub.org/ :Tides” 2019 Tide Tables. Best to avoid days or times of the day with ship arrivals or departures. Go to https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/details/ports/20760/USA_port:SACRAMENTO Peak times: First light and dusk. The three-hour period around a tide change. Sections: Trolling Drifting Live Bait Jigging Plugging/Throwing Lures Bait Fishing On-Anchor 1 Trolling When the water is 56-70 degrees, water clear (you can see your prop) to semi-clear (you can see your anti-cavitation plate) & the tides are right (small to medium size). Areas: Rod, reel, main line: 7’ MA rod, 10-17 pound, ¼-3/4 oz; line counter reel with a clicker and 30-pound braid ending with a snap. Leader: 30 inches of 15-25-pound mono with a barrel swivel on one end and a snap on the other. Scents/bait: In off-color water use garlic or shad scent (gel or spray). Lures/colors/speed: 12-16’ water depth: Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnows (center or outside rod, less likely to use it) or Predators (inside rod, less expensive if you lose it).

  • Threats from Fishing and Cumulative Impacts
    6.2 Adverse impacts of fishing activities under South Atlantic Council Fishery Management Plans (excerpted from Barnette 2001) All fishing has an effect on the marine environment, and therefore the associated habitat. Fishing has been identified as the most widespread human exploitative activity in the marine environment (Jennings and Kaiser 1998), as well as the major anthropogenic threat to demersal fisheries habitat on the continental shelf (Cappo et al. 1998). Fishing impacts range from the extraction of a species which skews community composition and diversity to reduction of habitat complexity through direct physical impacts of fishing gear. The nature and magnitude of the effects of fishing activities depend heavily upon the physical and biological characteristics of a specific area in question. There are strict limitations on the degree to which probable local effects can be inferred from the studies of fishing practices conducted elsewhere (North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries 1999). The extreme variability that occurs within marine habitats confounds the ability to easily evaluate habitat impacts on a regional basis. Obviously, observed impacts at coastal or nearshore sites should not be extrapolated to offshore fishing areas because of the major differences in water depth, sediment type, energy levels, and biological communities (Prena et al. 1999 ). Marine communities that have adapted to highly dynamic environmental conditions (e.g., estuaries) may not be affected as greatly as those communities that are adapted to stable environmental conditions (e.g., deep water communities). While recognizing the pitfalls that are associated with applying the results of gear impact studies from other geographical areas, due to the lack of sufficient and specific information within the Southeast Region it is necessary to review and carefully interpret all available literature in hopes of improving regional knowledge and understanding of fishery-related habitat impacts.

  • INSHORE FISH AGGREGATION DEVICES Their Deployment and Use
    SPC/Fishenes 24/WP 10 Page 1 ORIGINAL: ENGLISH SOUTH PACIFIC COMMISSION TWENTY-FOUR REGIONAL TECHNICAL MEETING ON FISHERIES (Noumea, New Caledonia, 3-7 August 1992) INSHORE FISH AGGREGATION DEVICES Their deployment and use. (Paper prepared by the Secretariat) INTRODUCTION 1 Growing regional interest in the development of domestic tuna fisheries has inspired a parallel interest in fish aggregation device (FAD) programme development. The 22nd RTMF reflected this interest in its focus on FADs. At the direction of that meeting the DSFDP has increased its efforts to provide both practical FAD assistance and development work in offshore FAD technology and exploitation. In addition, as directed by the 22nd RTMF, the Project has widened the scope of its activities to include, among other things, an ongoing effort to develop effective technology and exploitation techniques for FADs set in shallow inshore waters, most often for the particular purpose of aggregating baitfish species. 2. Apart from appropriate gear, the single most important ingredient for successful mid- water tuna fishing techniques, such as vertical and horizontal longlining and mid-water handlining, is the availability of suitable bait. It is widely recognised among Pacific island fisherman that small pelagic species such as big-eye scad (Seiar crumenophthalmus) and round scad (Decapterus spp.). which are widely known in the region by variations of the common Polynesian names of atule and opeta respectively, being a natural prey of tuna, make for superior bait. 3 These and some other small pelagic species also provide a seasonal source of food fish in some areas and fisherman have learned a good deal on a localised basis about the seasonal occurrence and behaviour of these, fishes.
