The effect of artificial lure type and environment conditions on the short‐time post‐release mortality of two recreational fished Luciobarbus species

Abstract

Recreational fishing takes place worldwide in both developed and developing countries, amounting to ~220 to ~700 million recreational anglers worldwide (World Bank, 2012). Consequently, the fisheries management agencies have implemented various regulation measures for the sustainable management of recreational fisheries (Benoît et al., 2015;Hühn & Arlinghaus, 2011;Lewin et al., 2021;Weltersbach et al., 2018). The most typical fishing regulations are size limits (legal minimum lengths) and daily bag limits (harvest limits per angler per day), and hence anglers are ethically and legally obligated to immediately release substantial parts of their catch following fishing regulations

Investigating Relationships Between Catch Per Unit Effort (CPUE) and Some Angler Characteristics in the Turkish Inland Recreational Fisheries: A Case Study from Uluabat Lake

“…In other studies carried on inland waters, the CPUE value was found to be 1.59-2.06 fish/hr (for Salmo trutta in River Gallo -Spain) by Almodóvar and Nicola (1998); 1.27 fish/hr (for Oncorhynchus spp. in Merced River, California -USA) by Wilberding and Hafs (2013); 0.174 -0.307 fish/hr (for Oncorhynchus mykiss in Karakaya Dam Lake, Türkiye) by Ateşşahin et al (2015); 0.120-0.136 fish/hr (for Luciobarbus mysteceus and Luciobarbus esocinus in Keban Dam Lake, Türkiye) by Ateşşahin (2021).When the average CPUE value of current research is compared with the values found in other studies, it is similar to the values reported by Almodóvar and Nicola (1998) and Wilberding and Hafs (2013), but it is higher than other studies. This may be due to the differences in the target species, fishing season, and the fishing area (Aydın & İlkyaz, 2021).…”

Influence of Colors on the Catching Performance of Artificial Lures of Multiple Troll Line in Bongao Waters, Tawi-Tawi, Philippines

“…Studies on the influence of color on the catching efficiency of line fishing gears are sufficient (Tester and Nakamura 1957;Jester 1977;Okamoto et al 2001;Hsieh et al 2001;Asia and Garcia 2009;Moraga et al 2015;Ateşşahin 2022). Some studies focused on the effects of colored baits in the longline fishery to mitigate the high bycatch of turtles (Swimmer et al 2005;Yokota et al 2009;Afonso et al 2021).…”
