Abstract

The catch is influenced by the catch rate of fishing gear. This study aims to analyze the catch composition, catch rate, frequency of fish emergence, and factors affecting the catch of iron traps in Lake Kerinci. The study was conducted from August–October 2025 with 10 fishermen on 30 fishing trips. The total catch reached 467 fish weighing 90.743 kg, dominated by tilapia at 77.74%, followed by medic fish, freshwater lobster, and climbing perch. Tilapia had the highest occurrence frequency (100%), indicating high abundance in the lake waters. The average catch rate was 30.25 kg/trip with variations between fishermen due to differences in location and water conditions. Regression analysis showed that the operating duration, number, and dimensions of the traps did not significantly affect the catch (R² = 0.10). In general, iron traps are classified as effective, selective, and environmentally friendly, thus having the potential to support sustainable capture fisheries in Lake Kerinci.
