Aguilar-Ramirez, D. and Rodriguez-Valencia, J.A. Bycatch reduction device prototypes (“RS_INP”) (industrial and artisanal versions) were tested on vessels targeting shrimp in the Gulf of California to compare bycatch-to-shrimp ratios, catch efficiency, drag resistence indicators, fuel consumption rate and selectivity with traditional versions.  The industrial version of the prototype reduced bycatch-to-shrimp ratios from 20-50% and shrimp […]

There were no differences in the catch rates of several fish species, including Atlantic croaker, […]

Methods that reduce bycatch by eliminating gear sets at the ocean surface. These include devices such as setting chutes that place sets below the ocean surface in longline operations where they are less prone to seabird predation, and setting gillnets below the sea surface to reduce entanglement rates of small cetaceans Submitted by Jose Alio […]

These devices are incorporated into trawl nets and are designed to give finfish openings for escape while retaining target shrimp species in the rear (codend) of the net. Examples include “skylights” which consist of a mesh opening located at the top of the codend. ”Skylights” can be combined with guiding funnels that create visual and […]
