    Seafish Industry Guidance Note on Mackerel 25 March 2015

    There was a resolution to the long dispute regarding the fishing of mackerel in the North East Atlantic (NEA) amongst the Coastal States in March 2014. The crisis had erupted in 2009 after the Faeroe Islands withdrew from the mackerel management agreement in response to Iceland’s increasing mackerel catch. The level of autonomous quotas set by both Iceland and the Faeroe Islands during the period 2009 to 2013 was strongly challenged by both the EU and Norway. This briefing note gives some background and explains the current position as at March 2015.

    Use of discards in bait

    Further to the Defra ‘Fishing for the Markets’ initiative, this study explores whether discards from English vessels not destined for human consumption can be utilised in bait in England. Analysis of current discards from the English fleet and the pot bait needs of those targeting crab and lobster showed that the bait market could potentially utilise all discards in England. Commercial sea trials tested the effectiveness of a range of discards species as bait. These identified that virtually all species currently discarded by English fishing vessels could be used as effective pot bait for crabbers. But this was not the case for lobster catches where the sea trials showed a negative impact on the catch rate compared to traditional bait. The study concludes that the use of discards as pot bait will predominantly depend on the cost as they will be competing on price with a range of existing cost-effective baits already used by the potting sector.
