KDWPT fisheries division staff sampled both sites with electrofishing for catfish in August. Numerous Blue Catfish up to 19 pounds and Flathead Catfish up to 40 pounds were sampled in each location. If you want to go after these fish, you may need to adjust you tactics somewhat.

  • 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.

  • Fishing Gear Gear Types
    Fishery Basics – Fishing Gear Gear Types All types of fishing gear, regardless of how it might be used, are designed to lure and capture fish. Fishing gears are defined as tools used to capture marine/aquatic resources, whereas how the gear is used is the fishing method. Additionally, a single type of gear may also be used in multiple ways. Different target species require different fishing gear to effectively catch the target species. Fishing gears fall under two general categories, active gear and passive gear. Active gears are designed to chase and capture target species, while passive gears generally sit in one place allowing the target species to approach the capture device. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) further classifies fishing gear into 11 categories primarily based on how the gear are fished, we have provided detailed information about each category See Fishing Gear. To browse a partial list of fishing methods and marine zones where they might be used click here. Hook & Line Hook and line gear consist of a minimum of two parts, a hook that is attached to a monofilament line. Artificial or natural baits are used to lure fish to the hook and once the fish has bitten the hook it is hauled in. It has been suggested that the first fishing line was actually Eskimo walrus- hide line used with a harpoon (See Fishing Gear – Grappling & Wounding Gear). Hook and line gear are used to catch benthic, demersal, and pelagic fishes. Modern fishhooks come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and materials. There are two main types of hooks: J-hooks and circle hooks.

  • 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.
