Anchovies (Stolephorus sp) is one of the pelagic fish resources which has economic value and abundant in Indonesia waters. The fishing gear to be used to catch Anchovies is the waring purse seine. Demak is one of the fishing base of the waring purse seine in Central Java. This study aims to analyze the relationship between length-weight, the frequency distribution of anchovy length in Semarang, and Demak waters. This research used an explorative survey method, while the measuring method of fish samples was purposive sampling. Data for Anchovy were obtained in May and October 2018. The correlation between the length-weight of Anchovy in May obtained a value of b=2.759. The longest Anchovy (May) measuring 76.69 mm, weighing 8.8 g, while the shortest size was 34.17 mm, weighing 1.97 g and mode at the mean value of 58.50 mm. The correlation between Anchovy length-weight (October) obtained a value of b =2.126. While the longest Anchovy measures 94.06 mm, weighing of 5.94 g, and the smallest size was 43.68 mm, weighing of 1.44 g while the mode was 65.30 mm in the mean. The catch of Anchovy in October was more feasible to catch than in May.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
