“…Considering that the main target species of recreational and artisanal fishing in Barra do Una SDR is the sea bass (Centropomidae), it is essential to know its local bioecological aspects such as feeding, reproduction, growth, and population structure. Such information should contemplate the entire ecotone (MUCJI and Marine EPAs) and not be restricted to political boundaries (Cresswell et al, 2019;Alic et al, 2021;Watson et al, 2021). It should also be considered that the species has a high plasticity (diadromous, euryhaline, and stenotherm) and performs constant migrations for feeding (carnivores) and reproduction (protandrous hermaphrodites) (Dantas and Barletta, 2016;Daros et al, 2016;Assis et al, 2019;Stevens et al, 2020).…”

“…To safeguard Brazilian ecosystems and biodiversity, some territories are protected by Conservation Units (CUs), which, in sustainable use categories, can house human populations that exploit natural resources through sustainable traditional practices (Brasil, 2000). These areas arouses the interest of recreational fishermen who seek natural environments rich in fish diversity, natural beauty, and local services that meet their needs (Alic et al, 2021;Ferreira et al, 2021;Oliveira et al, 2022). With the increase in this activity, it is essential to consider its implications for fisheries management and planning (Pita et al, 2020), especially in cases of conflicts between different fishing modalities (Gómez et al, 2021).…”

Recreational fishing is one of the most popular leisure activities in the world and, in Brazil, it is a relevant socioeconomic activity in several coastal populations. The management of this practice must conciliate traditional knowledge, scientific research, and the demands involved in using space and fishing resources to generate employment and income, without harming biodiversity. This article presents an analysis of recreational fishing in the Barra do Una Sustainable Development Reserve by primary and bibliographic data and results of participatory workshops, aiming to generate information and discussions relevant to fisheries management integrated in the Juréia-Itatins Mosaic of Conservation Units, in the south coast of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil. The main services provided to recreational fishing and structured in the territory are the activities of fishing guides or pilots, trading live baits, and renting boats, while, accommodation and food still require organization. Centropomus parallelus and C. undecimalis are target species, and the profile of practitioners – systematized by the scientific literature – demonstrates certain patterns related to age, fishing time, and place of origin. As for the use of space, of the 40 identified fishing spots, only nine used by recreational fishermen overlap with the fishing grounds used by artisanal fishermen, which may indicate little competition for resources between the fishing categories.

“…multiple‐use zones; IUCN category VI) except sanctuary or national park (no‐take) zones (equivalent to IUCN Category II) and some special purpose zones that may restrict certain types of extractive activities, such as demersal fishing or spearfishing (Director of National Parks, 2018). Such multiple‐use zoning practices are common in MPAs worldwide (Alic et al, 2021). Other extractive users of fisheries resources in the MPAs include recreational tour operators (charter fishing), commercial fishers and customary (Indigenous) fishers (DEC, 2013; Director of National Parks, 2017, 2018; CALM & MPRA, 2005).…”

Recreational fishing is a popular activity, with participation levels estimated to be more than 10% of the global population (Arlinghaus et al., 2015;Hyder et al., 2018). Catches from this sector also exceed the commercial catch for some species (Coleman et al., 2004;Ihde et al., 2011). Quantifying recreational fishing effort and catch are therefore necessary to support decisions regarding the sustainable management of fisheries, stock assessment and resource allocation

“…Recreational fisheries require monitoring to determine stock status and to track the success of current conservation efforts (Paukert et al, 2016). Except the strictest no-take zones, the management of several PA types like National Parks may allow different levels of recreational fishing (Alic et al, 2021). Nevertheless, allowing recreational fishing activities without monitoring stock dynamics over time could neglect the effects of fishing and other stressors such as climate change.…”

Recreational fisheries contribute substantially to the sociocultural and economic well‐being of coastal and riparian regions worldwide, but climate change threatens their sustainability. Fishery managers require information on how climate change will impact key recreational species; however, the absence of a global assessment hinders both directed and widespread conservation efforts. In this study, we present the first global climate change vulnerability assessment of recreationally targeted fish species from marine and freshwater environments (including diadromous fishes). We use climate change projections and data on species’ physiological and ecological traits to quantify and map global climate vulnerability and analyze these patterns alongside the indices of socioeconomic value and conservation effort to determine where efforts are sufficient and where they might fall short. We found that over 20% of recreationally targeted fishes are vulnerable to climate change under a high emission scenario. Overall, marine fishes had the highest number of vulnerable species, concentrated in regions with sensitive habitat types (e.g., coral reefs). However, freshwater fishes had higher proportions of species at risk from climate change, with concentrations in northern Europe, Australia, and southern Africa. Mismatches in conservation effort and vulnerability were found within all regions and life‐history groups. A key pattern was that current conservation effort focused primarily on marine fishes of high socioeconomic value rather than on the freshwater and diadromous fishes that were predicted to be proportionately more vulnerable. While several marine regions were notably lacking in protection (e.g., Caribbean Sea, Banda Sea), only 19% of vulnerable marine species were without conservation effort. By contrast, 72% of freshwater fishes and 33% of diadromous fishes had no measures in place, despite their high vulnerability and cultural value. The spatial and taxonomic analyses presented here provide guidance for the future conservation and management of recreational fisheries as climate change progresses.
