Abstract

A single species fishery model has been developed using the Gompertz law of population growth and the CPUE (Catch-per-unit-effort) hypothesis. The dynamical and the bionomic steady states were determined and their natures were examined from the biological as well as economic view points. The optimal harvest policy is discussed by taking the fishing effort as a dynamic control variable. The results are compared with those of the Schaefer model [10].
