The biological features and commercial use of twelve most valuable fish species are summarized as result of the composition of industrial and research catches studies. The size and age composition of catches, the age of puberty, the timing and conditions of spawning, and the feeding patterns of fishes were studied. The influence of net fishing gear with different mesh spacing on commercial fish populations and the magnitude of nets fishing productivity (fishing effort) were studied for the first time.
