  • Tuna Fishing and a Review of Payaos in the Philippines
    Session 1 - Regional syntheses Tuna fishing and a review of payaos in the Philippines Jonathan O. Dickson*1', Augusto C. Nativiclacl(2) (1) Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, 860 Arcadia Bldg., Quezon Avenue, Quezon City 3008, Philippines - [email protected] (2) Frabelle Fishing Company, 1051 North Bay Blvd., Navotas, Metro Manila, Philippines Abstract Payao is a traditional concept, which has been successfully commercialized to increase the landings of several species valuable to the country's export and local industries. It has become one of the most important developments in pelagic fishing that significantly contributed to increased tuna production and expansion of purse seine and other fishing gears. The introduction of the payao in tuna fishing in 1975 triggered the rapid development of the tuna and small pelagic fishery. With limited management schemes and strategies, however, unstable tuna and tuna-like species production was experienced in the 1980s and 1990s. In this paper, the evolution and development of the payao with emphasis on the technological aspect are reviewed. The present practices and techniques of payao in various parts of the country, including its structure, ownership, distribution, and fishing operations are discussed. Monitoring results of purse seine/ringnet operations including handline using payao in Celebes Sea and Western Luzon are presented to compare fishing styles and techniques, payao designs and species caught. The fishing gears in various regions of the country for harvesting payao are enumerated and discussed. The inshore and offshore payaos in terms of sea depth, location, designs, fishing methods and catch composi- tion are also compared. Fishing companies and fisherfolk associations involved in payao operation are presented to determine extent of uti- lization and involvement in the municipal and commercial sectors of the fishing industry.

  • Tristan Da Cunha Fisheries Detailed Report 2017
    Tristan da Cunha The Tristan da Cunha Archipelago is a group of volcanic islands in the South Atlantic (37o-41 o S; 9o-13o W), which includes the main island of Tristan da Cunha (96 km2), Gough Island (65 km2), Inaccessible Island (14 km2), Nightingale Island (3 km2) and two small islands close to Nightingale. The island group is situated around 1200 nautical miles south of St Helena and 1500 miles WSW of Cape Town, South Africa (Figure TdC-1). The island is part of the British Overseas Territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, with the Governor based on St Helena. The Administrator is the Governor’s representative on Tristan da Cunha. Figure TdC-1. The South Atlantic Ocean showing the location of the Tristan da Cunha island group. The three northern islands (Tristan, Nightingale and Inaccessible) lie north of the Subtropical Convergence STC), a circumpolar oceanic front located at approximately 42˚S where the sea surface temperature (SST) drops sharply. Gough Island lies in the path of the STC, which moves north of the island during winter months. Average SST at Tristan da Cunha in the austral summer range from 15- 19˚C, and in winter it declines to 13-15˚C. At Gough Island SST is on average 3˚C cooler than at the Tristan group during all months. The tidal range is small, but trade winds and frequent storms means that the marine environment is high energy with frequent physical disturbance. The Tristan da Cunha 200 nautical mile Exclusive Fishing Zone (EFZ; Figure TdC-2) was established in 1983 and covers an area of 754,000 km2.

    INDONESIA'S EXPERIENCE OF FISH AGGREGATING DEVICES (FADS) BY HARDJONO' 1. INTRODUCTION As an archipelagic state, Indonesia is endowed with a vast area of marine waters amounting to 5.8 million km, comprising 2.8 million km of internal waters, 0.3 million km of territorial waters, and 2.7 million km of Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). Large areas of marine waters in Indonesia offer good resource potential typical of the tropics and marine fisheries play an important role in the Indonesia fisheries. Among the multispecies tropical resources available in Indonesia waters those of great value are skipjack, tuna, promfret, Spanish mackerel, snapper, grouper and some carangids. Among shellfish, shrimp (Penaeus sp.) and spiny lobster are the most expensive. Recent estimates of the fisheries potentials of the country indicate a.potentia1 reaching 6.6 million mt, comprising of 4.5 million mt ib archipelagic and territorial waters and 2.1 million mt in the EEZ. The development of marine fish production in Indonesia during the the years 1980-1987 shows an average increase of 6.22% a year. At present marine fisheries contribute 76% of the total fisheries production which by 1987 reached 2.017 million mt. As a result of diverse characteristics of the Indonesian archipelago, the country's marine fisheries are complex and varied, and are dominated by traditional fishing activities operating a large number of very small vessels. Various kinds of fishing gear are employed which are dominated by gill nets comprising nearly one third of all fishing units operated. When the amount of fish landed by different types of fishing gear is considered, payang: and purse seine contribute the largest part of fish landed amounting to about 26% of total annual fish landings.

  • Effects of Salting and Drying on Quality Attributes of Snoek (Thyrsites Atun)
    Effects of salting and drying on quality attributes of snoek (Thyrsites atun) by Tanimowo Esther Omolara Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree Master of Food Science at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Louw Hoffman Co-supervisor: Prof. Umezuruike Linus Opara, Dr. Bernadette O’Neill March, 2015 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own original work, that I am the single author thereof (except to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: March, 2015 Copyright © 2015 Stellenbosch University of Stellenbosch All rights reserved ii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract Snoek (Thyrsites atun) is an important commercial fish species in South Africa, particularly in the Western Cape province. Snoek is mainly sold as fresh fish with excess fish being processed into dried salted fish. Although fishing is regulated by the various government agencies, the processing chain of snoek is largely unmonitored and unstandardized which has resulted in variable snoek quality becoming available to the consumer. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the quality (proximate, biochemical composition and microbiological safety) of salted and dried snoek products both experimentally and through market sampling. This was achieved by investigating two lines of research: 1) Establishing the quality of locally sold salted and dried snoek from informal vendors and 2) Investigating the effects of different levels of salting (%) and drying (relative humidity and temperature) conditions on snoek meat quality.
