Özet

This paper updates some information on fish catches from the last dalians (stationary uncovered pound nets) operating off the coast of Istanbul Strait. The data were collected on the weekly basis directly from the owners of the traps. Although the traps have been targeting migratory pelagic fishes during their migration, demersal species have been caught as well. Totally, 15 fish species belonging to 12 families were caught during the study period. While the number of fishing days ranged from 24 to 37, the catch per unit effort ranged from 163.08 kg/day to 456.39 kg/day. As a conclusion, this study provides recent reference for the future studies dealing with monitoring and managing dalian fishery.
