The National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation (Survey) is a comprehensive and long-standing survey sponsored by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service [1] since 1955. It is among the oldest and most detailed ongoing recreational surveys in the United States.
Shrimp bycatch. In the United States, shrimp and prawn fisheries are second only to crab fishing in terms of importance. In the northern parts of the country, cold-water shrimp are targeted, while warm-water species are targeted along the south-eastern Atlantic coast, and in the Gulf of Mexico. [5]
NMFS works in partnership with industry, universities, and state, local, and tribal agencies to collect data about commercial species. Fisheries observers on fishing vessels, transmit real time data electronically to NMFS. [5] NMFS works in partnership with the regional fishery management councils to prevent overfishing, and restore overfished ...
About 34% of the Japanese catch of E. superba and 50% of E. pacifica are used for fish food; the Canadian catch is used almost exclusively for this purpose. One quarter of the Japanese catch of E. superba is used in the form of fresh frozen krill as fish bait and half the E. pacifica catch is used as chum for sport fishing. The Japanese ...
It is the most important commercial prawn in parts of the United States from Pensacola (in the Florida Panhandle) to Texas, and in the Guianas. In other areas, such as Mexico, Nicaragua, Honduras, and Trinidad, the fishing effort is only locally intensive. [1] In 2000–2007, the annual catch was greater than 40,000 t (88,000,000 lb). [1]

In fisheries and conservation biology, the catch per unit effort (CPUE) is an indirect measure of the abundance of a target species. Changes in the catch per unit effort are inferred to signify changes to the target species' true abundance.
