Abstract
This study aims to find a law enforcement strategy against fisheries criminal offenses in Indonesia. This type of research used in this research is descriptive research. Analysis of the data used is quantitative. The results showed that the strategy of law enforcement in eradicating criminal acts of fisheries can be done by improving the licensing and supervision systems, applying criminal sanctions and involving the community, both in terms of planning and in terms of supervision. Law enforcement strategies can be realized well if supported by three ideal legal systems, namely the substance of the law itself, supported by the structure or law enforcement itself, and the culture of law in achieving good fisheries law enforcement.
