Abstract:
The selectivity of fishing gears plays a pivotal role in shaping the dynamics of aquatic ecosystems and fisheries sustainability. Through a comprehensive examination of trawl nets, gill nets, and longlines, this paper delves into the factors influencing selectivity, including gear design, selectivity criteria, selectivity terminologies, selection curves, and impacts. Drawing upon scientific research, empirical evidence, and case studies from around the world, this paper highlights the effectiveness of different selectivity measures in balancing the extraction of target species with the conserv

Abstract:
Understanding of fish growth, the spatial variability in individual growth, and the potential drivers of such variability is a fundamental component of many ecological investigations. However, sampling gears are always size-selective, and this selectivity can result in biased parameter estimates that can lead to, for example, biased stock assessments that use growth estimates. Using seven flathead catfish (Pylodictis olivaris) populations from across the USA as an example, we investigated to what degree the incorporation of gear selectivity in growth models reduces size-selective bias in the e

Selectivity is a standard of the level of friendliness of a fishing gear that is reviewed based on the diversity of catches obtained.

The yield per recruit (YPR) model developed by Berverton & Holt in 1957 is widely used to determine the optimal age at first capture (tc) and optimal fishing intensity (F0.1) for the sustainable use of fish stocks. The YPR model is mainly applied to fishing gears, including trawlers and Danish seines, as individual gear types. In practice, fishery resources are predominantly harvested using multiple fishing gears rather than using a single fishing gear, with selectivity differing among the various gears employed. Therefore, management reference points, such as F0.1 or F40%, should be deriv

Abstract:
The introduction of the Nordmøre grid in shrimp trawls has reduced the bycatch of non-target species. In the Norwegian Northern shrimp (Pandalus borealis) fishery, the mandatory selective gear consists of a Nordmøre grid with 19 mm bar spacing combined with a 35 mm mesh size diamond mesh codend. However, fish bycatch in shrimp trawls remains a challenge and further modifications of the gear that can improve selectivity are still sought. Therefore, this study estimated and compared the size selectivity of Nordmøre grids with bar spacings of 17 and 21 mm. Further, the effect of applying these tw

Abstract:
Trawl surveys provide important information for evaluation of relative stock abundance fluctuations over time. Therefore, when survey gears or vessels are changed, it is important to compare the efficiency and selectivity of old and new gears and vessels. A method for estimation of conversion factors is developed based on a survey design where paired hauls are taken in the same trawl track line. The method explicitly accounts for changes in fish density caused by trawling disturbance. A generalized linear model for paired hauls catches is analytically derived and the gear conversion and distur

Abstract:
Pelagic longline gear had several independent evolutions, but the most widespread form appears to have been originally developed by the Japanese as early as the mid-19th century. Technological developments such as polyamide monofilament line and modern fishing vessel construction have resulted in the evolution and expansion of this gear type as the primary worldwide method of commercially harvesting large pelagic fishes such as broadbill swordfish and tunas. Although the adaptability of the gear through changes in materials, lengths, and deployment strategies has resulted in generally high sel

Abstract:
Abstract The codend is generally presumed to be the place where the main selectivity of fish occurs in towed fishing gears, but other parts of the net have been found to contribute to the selectivity process of several invertebrate species. This means that conventional selectivity or survival studies may ignore the selectivity of net parts other than the codend for certain species. By attaching 12 small meshed collecting bags to different parts of a Danish anchor seine net and conducting normal commercial fishing activities, this study showed that there is a substantial escapement of fish and

Abstract:
Purse seine is the most widely used fishing gear by fishermen in Bangka Belitung. The fish caught in Bangka Belitung are of several types and sizes, namely Yellowstripe scad (Selaroides leptolepis), Yellowtail scad (Atule mate), Fringescale sardinella (Sardinella fimbriata) and others. This is because most ships still use mesh sizes that do not meet the requirements. Therefore, selective fishing gear should be selected to obtain the target of catching fish types and sizes that are suitable for catching and to minimize unwanted bycatch.

The Pacu Piaractus mesopotamicus is the most captured fish species in the Pantanal, Mato Grosso do Sul State, and since 1994, its maximum sustainable yield had already been exceeded. Its capture is carried out only by hooks, as mesh gears are forbidden either for professional or for recreational fishing. The aim of this study was to determine selectivity for different hook sizes used in P. mesopotamicus fishing and to verify which sizes capture only adults. Data were collected in the rivers Miranda, Aquidauana, and Vermelho, in January, March, and April 2002. Six longlines with eight hook size

Fishing is a profession that has long been carried out by humans and is estimated to have been thousands of years old. Sero is one of the many types of fishing gear that is often operated by coastal fishermen, especially in the Palopo City area. Fish, crabs, squids, lobsters, turtles and even estuarine crocodiles are just a few examples of variations in the types of marine life that can be trapped in sero fishing gear. Along with the growth of human population and advances in fishing technology, the level of exploitation is increasing. On the other hand, the carrying capacity of the environmen
