Abstract |
Catch per unit effort (CPUE) data from the coastal trammel prawn net fishery was estimated fromfishery-dependent surveys in Izmir Bay (Aegean Sea) during the 2004-2005 fishing season. Catches weresampled from 18 boats for a total of 170 landings, 60 landings from April to July (first period) and 110landings from August to November (second period). The mean CPUEs were 2.56 ± 0.39 kg. 10 net unit-1in the first period and 2.29 ± 0.20 kg. 10 net unit-1 in the second period, and not significantly differentbetween periods (P>0.05). |
