Bclme Commercial Fisheries Rights Holder and Vessel Analysis BCLME COMMERCIAL FISHERIES RIGHTS HOLDER AND VESSEL ANALYSIS BCLME Project LMR/SE/03/03 PRESENTED TO: BCLME Activity Centre for Living Marine Resources PRESENTED BY: ON BEHALF OF: 1 May 2006 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There are a number of commercial, industrial-scale fisheries in the BCLME region. Some of the fish stocks being exploited are shared, not only across fisheries but across countries as well. This report examines the following fisheries: • South Africa Hake offshore demersal trawl Hake inshore demersal trawl Hake long-line Small pelagic purse seine Horse mackerel mid-water trawl West coast rock lobster offshore traps Large pelagic longline Tuna pole & line • Namibia Hake demersal trawl & Long-line Monk & sole demersal trawl Deep-sea trawl Small pelagic purse seine Horse mackerel mid-water trawl West coast rock lobster traps & hoop nets Large pelagic longline and pole & line Deep-sea red crab traps • Angola Hake demersal trawl Small pelagic purse seine Small pelagic mid-water trawl Offshore prawn trawl Inshore prawn trawl Deep-sea red crab traps Large pelagic longline, tunny boat and pole & line At least 1057 rights holders were granted access to these fisheries by the three countries, which in turn required the services of some 1351 vessels, to catch in excess of 1.305 million tons of fish and crustaceans during the 2003 – 2004 season. The report contains a brief history and explanation of each fishery in each country, which is followed by a description of all of the rights holders and vessels partaking in the fishery during the 2003 – 2004 fishing season. Although some analysis is presented in the report, it is primarily descriptive in nature, as a companion document to the report BCLME/SE/03/03: A Micro-economic Systems Analysis of the BCLME Commercial Fisheries. Nevertheless, all data collected on the rights holders and vessels during the 2003 – 2004 season has been collated into a MS Access database, for further analysis by interested parties. The database is available from the BCLME Projects Office in Swakopmund. The report concludes with an observation on the need for a regional fisheries socio-economic database, and the potential role of the Interim Benguela Current Commission in developing one.

  • NOAA's Description of the U.S Commercial Fisheries Including The
    6.0 DESCRIPTION OF THE PELAGIC LONGLINE FISHERY FOR ATLANTIC HMS The HMS FMP provides a thorough description of the U.S. fisheries for Atlantic HMS, including sectors of the pelagic longline fishery. Below is specific information regarding the catch of pelagic longline fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico and off the Southeast coast of the United States. For more detailed information on the fishery, please refer to the HMS FMP. 6.1 Pelagic Longline Gear The U.S. pelagic longline fishery for Atlantic HMS primarily targets swordfish, yellowfin tuna, or bigeye tuna in various areas and seasons. Secondary target species include dolphin, albacore tuna, pelagic sharks including mako, thresher, and porbeagle sharks, as well as several species of large coastal sharks. Although this gear can be modified (i.e., depth of set, hook type, etc.) to target either swordfish, tunas, or sharks, like other hook and line fisheries, it is a multispecies fishery. These fisheries are opportunistic, switching gear style and making subtle changes to the fishing configuration to target the best available economic opportunity of each individual trip. Longline gear sometimes attracts and hooks non-target finfish with no commercial value, as well as species that cannot be retained by commercial fishermen, such as billfish. Pelagic longline gear is composed of several parts. See Figure 6.1. Figure 6.1. Typical U.S. pelagic longline gear. Source: Arocha, 1997. When targeting swordfish, the lines generally are deployed at sunset and hauled in at sunrise to take advantage of the nocturnal near-surface feeding habits of swordfish. In general, longlines targeting tunas are set in the morning, deeper in the water column, and hauled in the evening.

  • RECREATIONAL FISHING GEAR Setline - Longline
    RECREATIONAL FISHING GEAR Setline - Longline Marker buoys Main line Branch line (snood) Buoy line Hook Anchor weight Gear Description A longline is a setline which is set horizontally on the sea floor. It consists of four main parts; the main line, branch lines (or snoods), hooks and bait. Other components are marker buoys or dhan poles, the buoy line, anchor weights, swivels and clips. The longline is set with an anchor weight at each end. The branch lines are clipped at regular intervals onto the main line. They consist of a shark clip with a short length of braided line tied to a sharp, heavy gauge circle or double hook. Buoy lines and surface marker buoys at each end help the fisher to locate and retrieve the long line. Additional buoys and a dhan pole and flag may also be attached to increase the visibility of the longline for the fisher and other boats. A GPS fix may also assist when locating gear. How it works Longlines are set by attaching snoods to a weighted mainline while the boat is moving so that it lies along the sea floor. As the longline settles on the sea floor, scent from the baits attracts shark and fish to the hooks. Movement of the baits due to the current further entices fish. Squid or octopus tend to be the preferred bait because the leathery texture increases the ability of the bait to stay on the hooks. Fresh scalefish such as jack mackerel and Australian salmon are popular alternative baits. Wild Fisheries Management Branch Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment Recreational Fishing Gear Longline Target Fish In Tasmania, longlines are primarily used to target school and gummy shark.

    3.1.2 LONGLINE CHAPTER 3.1.2: AUTHORS: LAST UPDATE: LONGLINE Domingo A., Forselledo R., Miller March 2014 P., Jiménez S., Mas F. and Pons M. 3.1.2 General description of longline fisheries 1. General description of longline gear and vessels Longline is a fishing gear that is comprised of a main line, with secondary lines attached and hooks placed on the end of them. Longline is a very old gear, derived from “volantín” or “three hook line”, which was used by the Phoenicians and the Egyptians in the Mediterranean Sea (Canterla, 1989). The word “longline” is possibly of Catalonian origin, and derived from southern Italian or Greece (Prat Sabater, 2006; González García, 2008). Since their beginnings and up to the 15th century at least, the longlines that were used were fixed, anchored to the coast with stalks. Later, in the open sea, “jeito” and “vareque” net gears were used which drifted while remaining moored to the vessels, and which could have given rise to drift gears, one of which is longline (Canterla, 1989). 1.a General description of pelagic longline 1.a.1 Introduction Drifting pelagic longline is used worldwide to catch widely distributed pelagic and semi-pelagic fish. This gear is very effective in catching tunas, billfish and sharks, among others (Doumenge, 1998; Matsuda, 1998). It consists of a main line or “mother” line, suspended in the water by secondary lines called float lines, which carry the floats. The branch lines hang from the main line and carry hooks on the ends. The characteristics of the materials, dimensions, types of floats and hooks, as well as the configuration of the lines are quite variable, depending mainly on the origin of the fleets, the fishermen and the target species.

    Situation analysis for Mangroves for the Future: Understanding the resilience of coastal systems Melita Samoilys1, George Waweru Maina1, Julie Church1, Brigid Mibei1, Marta Monjane2, Abdulla Shah2, Doris Mutta3 and Mine Pabari2 1. CORDIO East Africa 2. IUCN 3. Nairobi Convention Secretariat (UNEP) March 2013 1 Table of Contents 1.0 Introduction and background The purpose of this situation analysis is to better understand ecological and social coastal systems in Eastern Africa with a view to identifying key areas and effective strategies through which MFF can contribute to the conservation, restoration and sustainable management of coastal ecosystems as key natural infrastructure which support human well-being, resilience and security (see Fig.1). More specifically, the analysis has attempted to address the following questions: A. To what extent are coastal systems1 able to be resilient2 to global change (eg. climate) so as to enable sustainable development3? B. What are the key factors affecting the resilience (illustrated in Fig. 1) of coastal systems?; C. How effective are current responses to vulnerability at local, national and regional levels? The approach of this study was largely a desk based review but was framed within an resilience-based analytical framework (Figure 1). Thus published papers and reports were interrogated using this framework to try and distil the most relevant information to a) understand the resilience of the coastal systems, both ecological and socio- economic, and b) help direct attention and focus on key areas to which MFF-WIO can contribute, either geographically or through socio-political processes. Global change is defined here for this review as changes caused by increasing greenhouse gas emissions resulting in a high CO2 world and the direct and indirect changes that ensue.
