The purpose of this guide is to enable fishery personnel to identify
sharks and shark carcasses by their diagnostic characteristics. It is
intended for identification of only those species commonly found in commercial
or recreational landings. The information is abridged from Jose I. Castro,

Proceedings of a workshop between industry and the National Marine
Fisheries Service hosted by Sea Grant to address bycatch issues on the east
coast of the United States. The goals of the workshop are, first, to
recognize that bycatch is a regional problem that has contributed to depressed
fish stocks, but that it is a manageable problem that can be solved when the
industry is involved with all the major players. Second, to generate new
joint research projects in specific fisheries to address the real bycatch
problem and education programs to address perceived problems.

This bulletin contains a method for making a profitability analysis
based on cost and returns of a 36 foot swordfish longline vessel on Florida's
lower Atlantic coast. In addition, an number of other factors that merit
consideration before becoming a fisherman are also discussed. Potential
investors who are not experienced in fishing should pay particular attention
to the estimated costs and returns statements. Net returns and the return on
investment to an absentee owner are often much different than those to a
