Abstract

Pot is the dominant fishing gear for capturing fish at Batang Kumu River. Fishermen operated pot for targeting redtail catfish without any bait. At this research pot pot was attached with trash fishes, palm oil to increase catch of pot in Batang Kumu river. The purpose of this experiment to investigate catch composition of pot and number of fish catch using different bait. This research used 3 different treatments i.e pot with trash fishes bait, pot with palm oil bait and pot without bait as control. Each treatment used 8 pots. Total pots used at this research were 24 pots. Total catch number and weight was analyzed by Kruskall Wallis test while catch homogeneity was analyzed by Shannon Wiener Index. Result of experiment indicated that dominant catch was redtail catfish, 57% of total catch. Kruskal Wallis test indicated that number of catch and weight of total siginificantly different among different bait type. The results of the analysis of the diversity of catches showed that the traps using trash bait had the lowest Diversity Index, Key words: Bait, Batang Kumu River, pot, Shannon Wiener

Abstract

Bycatch refers to the unintentional capture of non-target species, including fish with no commercial value or those that are protected. This issue has raised significant concern in the fisheries industry, as it contributes to overfishing and degradation of marine ecosystems. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of LED lighting on fish pot catch performance. The experiment was conducted from August to September 2023 in the waters of Sole Village, West Seram Regency, Maluku, Indonesia. An experimental fishing method was applied, comparing three treatments: fish pots without light (control), with blue LED light, and with green LED light. Across nine fishing trials, a total of 193 fish were caught, consisting of 53 individuals (27.32%) from pots without light, 108 individuals (55.67%) from blue LED pots, and 33 individuals (17.01%) from green LED pots. The composition of catch indicated that blue LED pots captured 75.00% target species and only 25.00% bycatch, compared to green LED pots (48.48% target : 51.52% bycatch) and pots without light (15.09% target : 84.91% bycatch). Statistical analysis showed no significant difference in total catch among treatments (p>0.05), but the blue LED pots recorded the highest productivity at 19.889 grams/trip/pot. These findings demonstrate that blue LED lighting not only enhances the catch of target species but also effectively reduces bycatch, thereby improving gear selectivity and supporting sustainable fisheries management.

Abstract

Saleh Bay is a water area located in West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) Province, which has experienced significant coral reef ecosystem degradation due to destructive fishing practices using fish bombs. The use of fish bombs has caused severe damage to marine habitats, including a decline in biodiversity and coral reef degradation. This study aims to identify the destructive fishing activities using fish bombs in Saleh Bay and analyze alternative mitigation strategies. Data were collected through interviews, discussions, and field observations in Prajak Subvillage, Batu Bangka Village, Sumbawa Regency. The analysis methods employed were descriptive analysis and SWOT analysis. The results showed that fish bombing activities are still ongoing with 12 active perpetrators. Law enforcement measures, such as the Smart Patrol and penalties for offenders since 2019, have not fully addressed the issue. A total of 70 fish bombing sites were identified around Dangar Island, Liang Island, Lipan Island, and Rakit Island. The proposed alternative strategies in this study include strengthening community-based patrols through local monitoring groups (Pokmaswas), external collaboration for funding, livelihood training for the community, providing incentives for offenders who switch to environmentally friendly fishing methods, and increasing socialization and education regarding applicable regulations.

Abstract

In an effort to improve the function of lights in attracting and collecting fish to be more effective, fishing auxiliary in the form of fish aggregating device attractors made from coconut leaves and nets and vertical bait made from tembang fish and squid solution are used in bagan floating liftnet fishing gear. In addition to the composition of the catch, hauling frequency, catch productivity and the effect of the combination of fish aggregating device attractor and vertical bait compared to the control on the floating net are the objectives of this study. Experimental fishing method has been conducted for 20 trips. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the total catch of the treatment and control floating nets, which were 964.2 kg and 445.4 kg respectively, while the average catch was 48.2 kg/trip and 22.2 kg/trip respectively. The catches are pelagic and demersal fish species dominated by the semar fish (Mene maculata), tembang (Sardinella gibbosa), pepetek (Leiognathus equulus), anchovies (Stelephorus sp.), and squid (Loligo sp.). The use of fish aggregating device attractors and vertical bait resulted in a greater number of settings/hauls compared to the control bagan floating lift net, namely 117 hauls and 90 haul respectively, while increasing the production margin of the catch from the treatment bagan floating lift net compared to the control by 116.5%.

Abstract

The Government of Indonesia is implementing a Measured Fishing policy to ensure the sustainable utilization of fishery resources. However, 88% of fish stocks are currently in fully fished (35%) or overfished (53%) condition, which hinders the attainment of maximum sustainable yield (MSY). This study aims to examine the influence of initial biomass (B₀) and annual harvest rate (Yₜ) on the sustainability of annual catch (Cₜ) and remaining biomass (Bₜ) using a logistic differential equation (LDE) model. Simulations were conducted across nine fishery models, combining three levels of B₀ and three levels of Yₜ, under assumptions of carrying capacity (K) of 1000 tons and a hipothetical fish biomass with intrinsic growth rate (r) of 0.05. Results indicate that the ratio of Yₜ to the current sustainable yield (SYₜ) is the primary determinant of stock sustainability and fishery longevity, regardless of B₀. This finding suggests that total allowable catch (TAC) should not be based solely on MSY, but rather adjusted according to SYₜ, while also incorporating precautionary principles and stock recovery strategies. This approach offers a more adaptive and realistic policy framework aligned with current stock conditions and supports the long-term sustainability of capture fisheries.

Abstract

The criteria for strength and durability of construction are critical in connection with the addition of coral fragments that add to the load on the squid attractor. The two materials to be tested are PVC and bamboo pipe materials based on adding fragments or without coral fragments. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of squid attractors made of bamboo with PVC pipes as a means of developing artificial habitats for another aquatic biota with the following points, namely, examining the influence of materials and the presence of coral fragments on the effectiveness of squid attraction, knowing the presence of fish and another biota in squid attractors made of bamboo and PVC pipes as well as the quality of seawater that supports the presence of fish and marine life and tests the resistance of hydrodynamic forces of squid attractors, bamboo materials and PVC pipes aligned with coral fragment planting. The analysis methods used include the effectiveness of squid attractor, fish abundance analysis, determination of squid attractor construction based on hydrodynamic forces, normality test, and statistical test (T-test/ Wilcoxon Test). The effectiveness of bamboo and PVC squid attractors with the addition of coral fragments and without coral fragments has very effective results. The use of bamboo squid attractors with the addition of coral fragments has a more significant abundance value. The addition of coral fragments increases stability to withstand hydrodynamic forces. Key words: squid attractor, bamboo, coral fragments, PVC

Abstract

Navigation in sailing is a crucial aspect that determines the safety and efficiency of a vessel’s journey, especially for fishing vessels operating in open waters. This study aims to design and develop an optimal sailing track for KM Uma 002, a fishing vessel owned by PT Uma Nian Nepa operating in the waters of the Flores Sea. The track design considers environmental factors such as currents, weather, sea depth, and vessel characteristics to enhance travel time efficiency and operational safety. The research methodology used is an applied approach with primary data collection through direct observations of the ship’s sailing route using nautical chart No. 116, interviews with crew members, and navigation analysis. Secondary data were obtained from literature on voyage route planning and the latest navigation technology. The track design includes determining waypoint coordinates, plotting the True Course (HS), calculating the total distance to travel (Distance to Go/DTG), and estimating the time of arrival (ETA). The results indicate that the outer route is safer and more efficient than the inner route, which poses navigation challenges due to narrow waters and numerous coral reefs. Based on the analysis, the journey from the fishing base to the fishing ground at a speed of 6 knots has an estimated travel time of approximately 12.25 hours. With an optimized navigation design, the vessel's operational efficiency is expected to improve while minimizing the risk of maritime accidents. Key words: fishing vessels, KM.

Abstract

One of the efforts in sustainable fisheries management is to measure fishing capacity. Fishing capacity is the maximum number of fish caught by a fishing fleet in a certain period. Currently, Merauke Nusantara Fisheries Port (PPN) is a type B fishing port that functions as a center for fisheries activities, including recording the number of ship arrivals and fish catches. Republic of Indonesia Fisheries Management Area (WPP-RI) 718, which includes the waters of the Arafura Sea, has abundant fish resource potential. However, using these resources must be carried out sustainably to avoid over-exploitation which can harm the fisheries ecosystem and the fishermen's economy. One of the efforts in sustainable fisheries management is to measure fishing capacity. Catching capacity is the maximum number of fish caught by a fishing fleet in a certain period. Currently, there is no comprehensive estimate of fishing capacity in WPP-RI 718, especially in PPN Merauke, which is at risk of not being in line with the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries guidelines. The process of determining fishing capacity begins with identifying fishing activities. This study analyzes the number of vessels, gross tonnage (GT), and the volume of catches landed at the Nusantara Fisheries Port of Merauke Regency. Data was collected through direct observation at the Nusantara Fisheries Port (PPN) and supported by observation, interview, and literature study methods. The respondents targeted in this study were captains or owners of fishing units. The results of the study showed that the number of fishing vessels landing their catches at the Merauke Nusantara Fisheries Port (PPN) in the period from March to May reached 348 units. The vessels consisted of 320 units measuring less than 30 GT and 28 units measuring more than 30 GT. In addition, 22 types of fish were identified with a total catch landed reaching 682.5 tons.

Abstract

The observed decline in fishery production within the Teluk Ambon and Teluk Ambon Baguala sub-districts of Ambon City from 2020 to 2021 has prompted concerns regarding the efficacy of the fishing gear employed, particularly gill nets, which are predominantly utilized by small-scale fishers in Teluk Ambon Dalam. This study sought to examine the impact of various production factors on the catch yields of fishermen using gill nets, specifically focusing on net length, net width, frequency of fishing trips, immersion duration, and the experience of the fishermen. A descriptive methodology was employed, utilizing a survey technique for primary data collection through structured interviews with 12 respondents, complemented by secondary data sourced from official records and scientific literature. The analysis revealed that, although not all variables demonstrated statistical significance, there existed a positive correlation between certain technical factors and the total catch, notably net width, frequency of fishing trips, and fishermen's experience. These findings underscore the necessity of optimizing production variables as a strategic approach to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of small-scale fisheries in coastal regions.
