On April 2, 2022, as part of the control fishing with participation of the Balkhash-Alakol Interregional Basin Inspection of Fishery and the “RPC of Fisheries” LLP, a comparative experiment was begun on the selectivity between of the traditional fishing gears (nylon nets) and the monofilament (fishing line) with a cell pitch of 30 to 100 mm.
This experiment will last for 10 days, as a result of which fishing gears with a minimum size of the constructive cell pitch will be recommended, which will not allow the possibility of by-catch of juvenile fish (non-commercial sizes, that is, immature specimens) in order to further preserve and ensure the reproduction of fish resources.
We invite all interested parties to participate in this action!
