Distribution of Certain Commercially Important Species in Small-Scale Fisheries Along the Montenegrin Coast
2021
The study focuses on data collected from fisheries with two dominant types of fishing nets used in small-scale fisheries along the Montenegrin coast, gillnets and trammel nets, through the Data Collection Reference Programme supported by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Montenegro. The data is presented through total catch and CPUE (given as weight of the catch in kg per 100 m of net used), separately for gillnets and trammel nets, as well as for selected species caught in each net. A total catch of 942.52 kg was recorded in net catches, of which 458.75 kg (48.7%) from gillnet catches, and 483.77 kg (51.3%) from trammel nets. The most dominant species was Little tunny (Euthynnus alletteratus), with a total recorded catch of 129.6 kg. Total CPUE of gillnets ranged from 0.003 kg/100 m to 8.00 kg/100 m. Average CPUE was 0.59 ± 1.24 kg/100 m. Trammel net CPUE ranged from 0.02 kg/100 m to 4.14 kg/100 m, with an average of 0.30 ± 0.58 kg/100 m of net.
