The objectives of this survey were twofold. Firstly a database was compiled of fishing vessels potting along the coast of North Devon, the number of pots employed by the fishermen and areas fished as well as information on the shore based industries associated with the fishery. Fishermen were asked to complete survey forms and charts and areas fished have been mapped using GIS.The second objective was to investigate the catch and returns of lobsters from surveys at sea.

Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | The objectives of this survey were twofold. Firstly a database was compiled of fishing vessels potting along the coast of North Devon, the number of pots employed by the fishermen and areas fished as well as information on the shore based industries associated with the fishery. Fishermen were asked to complete survey forms and charts and areas fished have been mapped using GIS.The second objective was to investigate the catch and returns of lobsters from surveys at sea. |
Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Data were gathered from surveys of lobster caught whilst on board fishing vessels operating in the Devon Sea Fisheries Committee North Devon District. Six trips to sea were achieved on board three vessels fishing in three different areas. The sampling effort for the survey was low due to the prevailing weather conditions over the survey period. All the catch for each onboard survey was analysed. Fishermen were also asked to complete survey forms and charts and areas fished have been mapped using GIS. |
