The CSTP data describe the geographic range, minimum estimates of longevity, and movements of coastal and pelagic sharks in the Atlantic Ocean using conventional mark/recapture methods. This document summarizes infor- mation collected by the CSTP for a 52-year period through 2013, updating a previous 1998 publication. A total of 229,810 sharks of 35 species were tagged, and 13,419 sharks of 31 species were recaptured during this period. To characterize the movements and distribution patterns, these data were summarized by sex for times at liberty and distance traveled. The longest time at liberty for any individual shark was 27.8 years (sandbar shark). Distances traveled ranged from negligible movement to 3,997 nautical miles (blue shark). Overall, and in some cases, seasonal distributions, as well as movements of tagged sharks, are mapped with respect to the Atlantic Ocean and marginal seas, state boundaries, the 200 mile United States Exclusive Economic Zone, and international and territorial waters of other countries. Detailed profiles are provided for 14 noteworthy shark species where the updated data have significantly extended previous ranges and movements.","PeriodicalId":39440,"journal":{"name":"Marine Fisheries Review","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42225645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This fishery uses a large quantity of crabs, Brachyura, as bait, and these crustacean populations are heavily impacted. To investigate alternative lures we examined the efficacy of various artificial lures ranging from plastic crabs to jigs baited with fish during the 2012 and 2013 seasons. Artificial PVC “crab” lures showed the best yields. However, their performance was less effective than natural crab in all cases. A simple simulation showed that using these lures, harvests would decrease by 42–44% compared to using natural crab. We suggest the use of PVC crab combined with an organic compound that releases an attractive scent for octopus in further experiments. Requirements for Marine Stewardship Council certification to minimize impacts on ecosystems are a serious constraint to certifying bait fisheries (Goyert et al., 2010). Introduction of exotic baits also can carry undesirable ecological and social impacts (Gillett, 2011). Additionally, some baits such as crabs, Brachyura, may themselves be taken with baited devices (Dellinger et al., 2016), and this may in turn impact or harm other fisheries. These shortcomings are also documented in octopus fisheries using baits. For example, Japanese ghost crabs, Macrophthalmus japonicus, used as bait in traps for Octopus minor in the Republic of Korea must be imported from China (Kim et al., 2015). The Mayan octopus, Octopus maya, fishery on Mexico’s Campeche Bank with annual landings over 15,000 t is the largest octopus fishery in the Americas and one of the largest worldwide (FAO, 2018). This fishery employs lines baited with various crab species such as Florida stone crab, Menippe mercenaria; longnose spider crab, Libinia dubia; and blue crab, Callinectes spp., among others. This fishing method is considered to be sustainable regarding the octopus, as no spawning females, which stop feeding, are taken (Markaida et al., 2017). However, this fishery consumes a vast quantity of crabs, whose populations are negatively impacted, a fact noticed long ago (Solís-Ramírez, 1998; SolísRamírez et al., 1999; Carmona-Osalde and Rodríguez-Serna, 2012). Stone crab is the main bait used in the octopus fishery in Lerma and Campeche, despite its express prohibition by both stone crab and octopus regulations (DOF, 2016a,b). A local commercial fishery harvests 16 annual tons of crab claws using traps. Additionally, it is taken illegally by skin divers. Our limited data from six octopus fishermen during the 2012 and 2013 seasons estimated that each fisherman used 145 dozen (174 kg) declawed stone crabs per season (110 days) as bait. A rough estimate from a conservative figure of 700 fishermen in Lerma and Campeche would use 122 t of declawed crabs per season. This is a far larger amount than the official catch of stone crab as suggested by claw landings.

In 2016, the catch of commercial tunas was 4.9 million tons. Most of the tuna intended for canning is harvested at sea and needs to be chilled, or chilled and frozen at sea, and then processed into cans or other containers to preserve freshness and wholesomeness. Twothirds of this global catch of tuna are frozen in salt (sodium chloride) brine. The U.S. FDA offers recommended dietary allowances for many nutrients, including sodium, and encourages the consumer to lower their sodium intake. Depending on a host of factors, the direct contact between brine and the fish will result in some salt (sodium) uptake into the fish muscle. To better understand the impacts of these factors on sodium uptake, this paper describes a multiple regression study of salt penetration in tuna frozen in salt brine and offers suggestions to reduce the salt levels in the tuna delivered to the canneries. The following are best practices to produce excellent quality purse seine fish: 1) Always have enough cold refrigerated seawater (RSW) (-1°C or 30°F) or cold brine (-20°C or -4°F) to receive and chill the maximum expected catch. Do not catch the fish if it cannot be chilled immediately. 2) Quickly transfer the fish from the net to the wells with chilled RSW or cold brine. Brail fast. 3) Do not overpack the wells. This is a critical practice to achieve rapid chilling and freezing rates, greatly reduce physical damage, and facilitate easier and faster unloading. 4) Restrict the time the tuna spends in the The primary species in volume and value are skipjack tuna, Katsuwonus pelamis; yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares; bigeye tuna, Thunnus obesus; tonggol, Thunnus tonggol; and albacore, Thunnus alalunga. These tunas are primarily caught by purse seiners and longline vessels. Pole-and-line boats using live baitfish (baitboats) are also used to capture the tuna, depending on the species and availability of baitfish and of near-shore processing stations (Hamilton et al.2; ISSF3). Skipjack tuna (SKJ), yellowfin tuna (YFN), bigeye tuna (BET), and other species of tuna are schooling fish. They are caught in large numbers by purse seiners that encircle the fish to 2Hamilton, A., A. Lewis, M. A. McCoy, E. Havice, and L. Campling. 2011.
