to 1987. In 1986, 55 percent of the catch was from handline and 45 percent
from driftnet landings. In 1987, 78 percent was from driftnet and 22 percent
from handline landings. A comparison of lengths from recreational and
commercial landings showed recreationally caught fish to be, on the average,
smaller. No marine mammals, birds, or turtles were entangled in the net on
observed trips. Data on cost of nets, fuel, and supplies plus the
distribution of earnings among the crew were obtained for five driftnet boats.

Populations Important to the Management of the Commercial Marine
Fisheries." Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission Bulletin,
1(2):27-56.
In this investigation it will be attempted to indicate the manner in
which the fundamental laws of population growth operate in the case of a
commercial fishery, and so, perhaps, clarify some of the important
considerations basic to the management of the oceanic fisheries. These will
be shown by means of mathematical models parts of which are similar to ones
used in predator-prey investigations of other organisms and in other attempts
to apply them to fisheries.
Schaefer, Milner B. (1957). "Some Considerations of Population Dynamics
and Economics in Relation to the Management of the Commercial
Marine Fisheries." Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of
Canada, 14(5):669-681.
This paper considers some significant aspects of the population dynamics
of commercial fish stocks and of the economics of commercial fishing to arrive
at a rational basis of considering the social problem of fisheries management.

Management of Commercial Marine Fisheries." Trans. Am. Fish. Soc.,
88:100-104.
Conservation management of the commercial marine fisheries has the
general objective of maximizing man's long term benefits from the exploitation
of the fish resources. The question of what is most beneficial to man
involves both biological and economic considerations. In this paper some of
the effects of fishing on the fish stocks, and on the sustainable yields from
them, are considered, together with important economic factors. It is
indicated that the maximum sustainable average catch and the maximum net
economic yield are mutually exclusive. It is possible, however, to obtain
some net economic yield at the level of maximum sustainable harvest, but this
requires some modification of the common property nature of fish stocks.

for the Atlantic Swordfish Fishery." Memorandum for William Fox,
National Marine Fisheries Service, Silver Spring, Maryland.
The purpose of this memorandum is to: (1) provide a biological
assessment for a proposed rule that would implement regulatory changes for the
Atlantic swordfish fishery and (2) request initiation of an informal Section 7
consultation as required by the Endangered Species Act.
