Fisheries by catch and discards

Fisheries by catch and discards

(f) Considering or assessing the by catch or incidental catch of species as well as the potential quot discard quot problem.

Yes you can, but you get punished.

Take your 3 steps and hit them on your own head.... God please take that pen and stick it in your eye!

And they're not thrown back as by catch, they're eaten.

(a) Length, weight and sex composition of the catch, where agreed

(d) Port sampling to verify catch composition and amount.

Between 1927 and 1945, the village's annual fish catch was 16 metric tons.

(a) Catch and effort log books, including data on fishing operations

Reference was made to the need for scientific data on fish stocks and for data on discards.

(b) Catch and effort reports by radio, telex, facsimile and or satellite transmission

Upon arrival of the first container in Riga the buyer and its customer realized that the fish was from the previous year's catch.

(c) Vessel trip, landings and transshipment reports to verify catches

Expressing concern at the significant level of by catch and discards in several of the world's commercial fisheries, and recognizing that the development and use of selective, environmentally safe and cost effective fishing gear and techniques will be important for reducing by catch and discards,

(a) Call for more timely and comprehensive reporting of catch and effort data, including for straddling fish stocks within and outside exclusive economic zones and for discrete high seas stocks, including by catch and discards

35. Total krill fishing in all Antarctic waters during 1992 93 was reduced to 88,000 tonnes.

While development potential remained limited, increased catches of snapper and grouper had been made by local vessels.

For example, EU vessels pay South Pacific island nations 44 per tonne of fish caught.

Similar cases of drastically lower catches have also been reported in other areas of the Western and Central Pacific.

(f) To promote the use of environmentally safe fishing gear and technology in order to minimize waste, discards and untargeted catches

And unfortunately, they make up a large portion of the California by catch up to 26 percent of the drift net.

18. In a statement by the CCAMLR observer, it was noted that krill continued to be the most important species being fished in the 1991 92 season and reported at around 288,000 tons, 19 per cent less than in 1990 91.

In high seas pelagic fisheries, catches of tuna and tuna like species have been increasing throughout the years.

Thus, by the time a new entrant arrives on the scene these States may, in accordance with articles 118 and 119, have determined the catch and established conservation measures.

Until 1975, catches of deep water species were relatively small, ranging between 2 and 10 per cent of the total oceanic catches. Since the late 1970s, however, their contribution has consistently been greater than 20 per cent, reaching 30 per cent of the total oceanic catches in recent years.

A number of small Pacific island nations, including Fiji, Kiribati and Samoa, have reported that subsistence catches are on the decline.

(g) The selection of gear and the use of environmentally safe fishing gear and technology, in order to minimize waste, discards and untargeted catches

(c) Vessel specifications (e.g. material of construction, date built, registered length, gross registered tonnage, power of main engine(s), hold capacity, catch storage methods)

(iii) Ensuring compliance by fishing fleets with global and regional standards for collection of catch, effort and other pertinent data in agreed format and time frame

Meanwhile, catch rates had increased by some 65 per cent in the lobster fishery and by 20 per cent in the conch fishery.

And even as he did so the flap of the bar was shut down and the bolt clicked, and then with a tremendous thud the catch of the door snapped and the bar parlour door burst open.

(e) Sharing of catch, effort and other pertinent data from fishing operations with other interested States, including coastal States

Even the fleets of those nations which obtain relevant licenses to fish do not declare the correct catches for reliable data records.

Japan presented a paper concluding that, since krill catches in a sub area were low compared to the local krill biomass, it was unlikely that the fishery would be having an adverse effect on predators.

133. In addition, FAO indicated that the distribution of the world catch and fish consumption had become increasingly unbalanced because of the imbalance in the distribution of fish resources in the oceans and in the distribution of wealth.

(d) Urge States and relevant organizations to expand the use of negative vessel lists to identify products from illegal, unreported and unregulated catches, and where possible to establish tracking and verification mechanisms to do so

Illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing for toothfish in the Southern Ocean, for example, still exceeds reported catches despite major efforts to control such activities.

6. The following vessel related data is required for standardizing fleet composition and vessel fishing power and for converting between different measures of effort in the analysis of catch and effort data

Recognizing also the need for appropriate measures to address lost or abandoned gear, including catches by derelict fishing gear, which adversely affects, inter alia, fish stocks and habitats,

The fact that a sample belonging to the previous year's catch had been offered, but that this detail had not been disclosed to the buyer, precluded the plaintiff from relying on the provision of article 35 (2) (c) CISG on the conformity of the sold goods to the sample.

(i) The effective contribution and timely exchange of scientific information, catch and fishery effort statistics and other data relevant to the conservation of fish stocks in order to ensure that the best scientific evidence available is used for management decisions

Recognizing also the need for appropriate measures to address lost or abandoned gear, including catches by derelict fishing gear, which adversely affect inter alia fish stocks and habitats,

38. The XIIth meeting of CCAMLR readjusted some of the total allowable catches for various fish species, primarily the Patagonian tooth fish, within the fisheries of the Convention area. 22

The use of satellite technology had helped locate fish stocks and improve catches by several hundred per cent, while its use in resource mapping had, inter alia, achieved a 90 per cent success rate in predicting where to drill for water.
