Bycatch trend and its fate of the Spanish-owned tuna purse seiners fleet from the Atlantic and Indian oceans: Impacts of the implementation of good practices
This study examines the fate of species caught as bycatch in the tropical tuna purse seine fishery across the Atlantic and Indian Oceans from 2003 to 2022, focusing on the impact of the industry-implemented Code of Good Practices (CGP) and bycatch mitigation measures from Tuna Regional Fisheries Man...

This study examines the fate of species caught as bycatch in the tropical tuna purse seine fishery across the Atlantic and Indian Oceans from 2003 to 2022, focusing on the impact of the industry-implemented Code of Good Practices (CGP) and bycatch mitigation measures from Tuna Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (t-RFMOs). Data were sourced from scientific observers under both Spain’s National Data Collection Framework (DCF, Regulation (EU) No 2017/1004) and the OPAGAC-AGAC observer program, which covers other flags as well. Following the adoption of CGP and t-RFMO regulations, statistical tests reveal significant improvements in the live-release rates of sharks and rays after 2014 in both oceans, but no significant differences in live-release rates for marine turtles, which were already high. Despite these positive trends, interactions with certain species, such as billfish, experiences an increase in discard rates during the last years of the study period.
