The opening article is about Pakistan’s first One-stop Aqua Shop, a reflection of what is possible when human, social, physical, natural and financial resources are put together by a group of colleagues determined to improve the livelihoods of their area’s fish farmers. The second article is the life story of Dad Karim, and an insight into the livelihoods of Pakistan’s coastal fishers. Staying on the coast for the third article, we read a first person account of how a trip to England led to learning about how to be a deep sea fisherman. The following three articles are each about different species being caught or cultured in Pakistan: freshwater prawns, squid and grouper. Happy reading! Graham Haylor, STREAM Director William Savage, STREAM Journal Editor First One-stop Aqua Shop in Pakistan Syed Nadeem Sharib and Muhammad Junaid Wattoo The Background One-stop Aqua Shops (OAS) started through a DFID1-supported project run by the STREAM Initiative of NACA. The idea originally came from farmers in eastern India, who recommended that there was a need to provide fisheries and aquaculture services under one roof. Currently nine OASs are in operation in India, three in Vietnam, and one in Pakistan, with two being proposed in Myanmar. The OAS in Pakistan is located at Alipur Chatha in Gujranwala District of Punjab Province. The possibility of an OAS was promoted by STREAM Pakistan during stakeholder consultations on the national fisheries policy. There was interest among farmers since it served their purposes and could help to solve problems they have in their lives and work. Modalities were discussed later but the ground work had been started for the establishment of an OAS in Gujranwala District. The Idea in Pakistan The idea of an OAS was discussed with our fellow fishermen and colleagues in the village and all agreed to cooperate and work closely for the establishment and functioning of this venture. Some of the energetic young men, educated but unemployed, volunteered themselves to work as field staff. We already had an old restaurant building lying empty on the road side and fish farms Gathering at inauguration ceremony adjacent to that place along with a fish hatchery being operated to supply fish seed to our farms. This place was best suited to our OAS idea and was selected as the proposed site. With the guidance of STREAM Pakistan, we organized services to deliver to fish farms with lower profit margins but efficient response. Many of the fish ponds used for rearing were converted into hatchery ponds and stocked with fingerlings produced by our own hatchery and purchased by nearby hatcheries. We arranged for the provision of fertilizer through a mutual agreement with a fertilizer supplier at lower rates. Mr Nadeem Sharib was already working with NFRDF, an organization supplying some organic compounds to fish and crop farmers with excellent results. We brought these products to the OAS and started supplying them to fish farmers. We also contacted some suppliers in Lahore, the capital of Punjab, to provide us with fish nets and water quality equipment at reasonable rates, and training on how to use them. A bulldozer was also contracted to construct fish ponds for farmers in the area, again at reasonable costs. The Team and Services The OAS at Alipur Chatha is helping fishers and fish farmers through the provision of services related to fisheries and aquaculture. These include fish seed, feed ingredients, chemicals, fertilizers, organic compounds and fishing nets. Water quality testing is done free of cost. With a 1 Department for International Development, United Kingdom 1 STREAM Journal Volume 5 Number 2 April-June 2006 phone call, volunteers are ready to visit any fish pond in nearby villages. The prices for commodities are reasonable and below ordinary rates in local markets. Monthly meetings are being organized at the OAS to review progress and overcome difficulties we face in providing services to our clients. Fish farmers are encouraged to attend the monthly meetings and bring their problems to get first-hand knowledge from experienced farmers and fisheries department officials who regularly attend the meetings. Now farmers are happy with the supply of services and the establishment of the OAS. Some social services are also being provided at the OAS, including a free Monthly meeting at OAS medical camp for people from fish farming communities of nearby villages. In the last medical camp, about 300 patients were observed by three specialist doctors in different fields. They came to the medical camp on our request to provide free medical advice to poor patients from the fish farming communities. The Network A network of fish farmers is being established in nearby villages. On the recommendation of the OAS management, STREAM Pakistan has issued letters to different people in nearby villages to designate them as “fish ambassadors”, at least one in each village. These are educated fish farmers in different villages who are motivated to carry out more Free medical camp at OAS scientific or advanced farming to increase fish production with the use of the latest technologies. They come on different occasions to the OAS to discuss their issues, take advice on various matters, and get literature on fish farming and better practices. Hopefully these ambassadors will serve as models for the rest of the fish farming community in their villages and will help boost fish farming production. The OAS is equipped with a computer and internet service to assist the management to contact STREAM country offices and explore updates on the STREAM website. A CD has also been burned on the computer to have access to the main documents STREAM has produced over the years. The Future The One-stop Aqua Shop is planning to start tracking information services for fish farmers using a bar-coding system with the help of the STREAM Regional Office. Better-practice guidelines for fish farming will be distributed through this system. Syed Nadeem Sharib is the operator of the OAS. He can be reached at <[email protected]>.

Now in his mid-forties, he was first-born of a poor native fisherman of the Kumari clan, the oldest inhabitants of Gwadar District in Balochistan Province. Later, the family grew with the addition of five brothers and six sisters. The whole family lived in a small traditional solitary hut made of dried-leaf mats and sticks cemented together with mud plaster and not surrounded by a house boundary. So a family of fourteen people was living in one hut, eating fish and other seafood cooked in traditional ways, either fried with plain rice or cooked in gravy (salan) and taken with bread (roti). Dad Karim started fishing in the sea at the age of ten as janshoo (supporting labor) of his father and became skipper (na khuda) at the age of 18 when his father had grown old, could not support the family and decided to move them for the first time. “The sea was clean and rich. Anyone with a yak dar [small boat made from a single piece of wood] and a sail could fish in the vicinity of coastal waters. Much of the time, fishing was dependent on wind speed and direction. We used to enjoy our youth by playing indigenous games like chari kathiyalli and hadd’i, and sometimes football. Even when there was no football ground, we used to play on the beach or in the streets,” said Dad Karim. Old and New Species and Gears At 18, he started proper fishing. He was energetic and curious. He was the most senior on board among his brothers.

  • In the Tuna Gillnet Fisheries of Pakistan
    ____________________________________________IOTC-2021-WPEB17(DP)-14 Some Observation on the Silky Shark (Carcharhinus falciformis) in the Tuna Gillnet Fisheries of Pakistan Muhammad Moazzam WWF-Pakistan, Karachi, Pakistan ([email protected]) Abstract Sharks form important part of bycatch of the tuna gillnet operations in Pakistan. Silky shark (Carcharhinus falciformis) was observed to the most dominating species in commercial landings of oceanic sharks at Karachi Fish Harbour Pakistan followed by mako shark. This species is considered as commercially important, as it meat is locally consumed whereas fins are exported despite restrictions because this species is included in Appendix-II of CITES. During the present study it was observed that large sized specimens (161 cm to 191cm TL) were not caught during 2017 and 2018 whereas in 2016, silky shark of these size classes were caught by tuna gillnetters as bycatch indicating overfishing of shark in general and silky shark in particular. Introduction Sharks are considered as an important bycatch group of tuna gillnet fishing in Pakistan (Khan, 2013; Moazzam, 2013, 2019; Shahid et al., 2015, 2016). In Pakistan, gillnets consisting of monofilament and multifilament are used for catching tuna and tuna like species. Monofilament net is mainly used for catching neritic tuna in coastal waters whereas multifilament nylon nets are used for catching longtail tuna (Thunnus tonggol), yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) in the offshore waters. There are about 700 tuna gillnetters based mainly in Karachi along Sindh Coast and Gwadar along Balochistan Coast. A number of shark species were observed to be entangled in the tuna gillnets which is dominated by silky shark (Khan et al., 2013, Moazzam, 2012; Shahid, 2012; Shahid et al., 2015, 2016).

  • Species Composition of Elasmobranchs in the Surface and Subsurface Gillnet Operation in the Northern Arabian Sea
    __________________________________________________IOTC-2019-WPEB15-13 Species composition of elasmobranchs in the surface and subsurface gillnet operation in the Northern Arabian Sea Muhammad Moazzam WWF-Pakistan, Karachi, Pakistan ([email protected]) Abstract Sharks form important part of bycatch of the tuna gillnet operations in Pakistan. WWF- Pakistan introduced subsurface gillnetting in 2014 in which gillnet are placed 1.4 to 2 m below the sea surface. Fishing fleet engaged in tuna gillnetting adopted subsurface gillnetting and by January 2016 entire tuna fleet was converted in subsurface gillnetting. Catch of endangered, threatened and protected (ETP) species such as dolphins and sea turtles were observed to be much lower in subsurface gillnet as compared to surface operations. Sharks are among the other ETP species whose catches were dropped in subsurface gillnet as compared to surface operations. It was observed that overall shark catches were 15.06 % lower in the subsurface gillnet operation as compared to surface placement of gillnets. A marked seasonality was observed in case of dominating species including mako and silky shark. Catches of mako sharks was observed to be about 8.65 % higher in subsurface gillnets as compared to surface gillnets. Introduction Sharks are considered as an important bycatch group of tuna gillnet fishing in Pakistan and other part of the Arabian Sea (Koya, 2018; Shahifar, 2018, Khan, 2013; Moazzam, 2013; Shahid et al., 2015, 2016). In Pakistan, gillnets consisting of monofilament and multifilament are used for catching tuna and tuna like species. Monofilament net is mainly used for catching neritic tuna in coastal waters whereas multifilament nylon nets are used for catching longtail tuna (Thunnus tonggol), yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) in the offshore waters.
