Abstract

This study presents the catch records of a coastal fisherman during daily fishing trip between 2017 and 2018 in Yenişakran, Çandarlı Bay (Aegean Sea). The trammel net and longline were used at depths of 5-25 m on a sandy bottom and the sea meadows during the year. A total of 39 species were identified from the both trammel netting and the longlining. Mean catch per unit effort (CPUE) values (8.7±0.1 kg/1000 m net and 12.9±0.8 kg/1000 hooks) shown that longlining was more efficient fishing gear than the trammel netting. In terms of mean CPUE values, there is significantly difference between trammel netting and longlining (p<0.05).
