Summary: This study analyzed the efficiency of using lambari Deuterodon iguape as a live bait compared to traditional artificial bait in sea bass fishing and demonstrated its viability. The results showed that lambari Deuterodon iguape is as efficient as artificial bait for bass fishing in inland waters and can be an economic alternative. Moreover, using live bait of native species can contribute to employment and income generation.

Summary: Urbanised estuaries, ports, and harbours are now being considered by coastal spatial management initiatives due to their high biodiversity and value to local residents. Assessments of recreational activities in these areas can help avoid conflicts, but existing models need to be developed at a scale relevant to regulatory bodies.

Summary: This article provides the first comprehensive literature review of recreational fishing marine debris (RFMD) on a global scale. The review identified plastic and metal as the dominant debris materials found. It also found that nearshore coastal areas and reefs acted as both sources and sinks of RFMD and identified a diverse suite of potential impacts at local scales, such as ghost fishing and entanglement.

Summary: Recreational fishing is a popular leisure activity, but it causes significant fish mortality in many areas. However, the sector's objectives and the data needed to track its performance are poorly understood, which limits its inclusion in fishery harvest strategies. In this study, we reviewed the available recreational fishing data sources in New South Wales, Australia, and evaluated their usefulness for monitoring the performance indicators specific to recreational fishing within harvest strategies. We found that most social objectives of recreational fishing are outside the scope of traditional harvest strategies, but ecological objectives are linked to underlying performance.

Summary: Cockles, as one of the most exploited bivalve species in Portugal, play a crucial role in coastal ecosystems. This study assessed the spatial and temporal variations in cockle populations in two Portuguese estuarine systems. The results showed that cockles are mainly distributed in the intermediate areas of both estuaries, with higher abundance in the Tagus estuary. Appropriate management measures are needed to ensure the sustainability of these cockle populations.

Summary: Recreational fishing is undervalued and poorly integrated into the management of multi-sector fisheries, leading to marginalization of recreational fishers and hindering fisheries sustainability. A study on marine fisheries harvest strategies in 11 nations reveals a gap in inclusion of recreational fishing compared to the commercial sector. The lack of explicit objectives, data collection, performance indicators, and management controls in harvest strategies for recreational fishing reduces its effectiveness in achieving sustainability goals.

Summary: The study investigated sea turtles captured from a recreational fishing pier in the northern Gulf of Mexico, finding that turtles captured from the pier were larger in size and had lower body condition index compared to those captured in the net. There were no significant differences in head width between net-caught and pier-caught turtles, indicating a complex relationship between size, body condition, and vulnerability to pier captures.

Summary: Fishing guides are influential role models in the recreational angling community, with their behavior being emulated by fishing clients. However, they are perceived to have less influence in inspiring and representing new possibilities. This highlights the opportunity for fisheries managers to target behavioral interventions with fishing guides to shape angler behavior.

Summary: In this study, an extensive survey was conducted to document and quantify recreational fishing patterns across the Israeli Mediterranean shoreline. The results showed that recreational fishing accounted for 10%-37% of the total annual fishing yields, similar to other regions of the Mediterranean. Non-indigenous species were found to be common in recreational catch and contributed significantly to local fishery yields. The study identified 23 species that are targeted by both recreational and commercial fishing, indicating potential conflicts between these fishing sectors.

Summary: Recreational fishers often oppose marine protected areas due to concerns about threats to their activities or interests. Illegal fishing practices were found to be widespread in a group of underwater recreational fishers, forming a subculture of black money. The importance of involving recreational fishers in planning marine protected areas was highlighted to ensure their interests are considered and regulations are followed.

Summary: Recreational fishing along the Brazilian coast has been poorly studied, with little effort made to estimate real catches. A study in the state of Sao Paulo collected samples to evaluate catches and found that the majority of species caught were below the size at first maturity, highlighting the necessity of improving recreational catches reports for better fisheries management and data collection.

Summary: This study investigates the potential ecological impacts of the marine aquarium trade on Brazilian reefs. Results show that the internal trade involves prohibited and endemic species, and illegal harvesting practices. Removal of the most traded cleaner fish species significantly disrupts ecological function. Hence, there is a need for reassessment of regulations and policies regarding the marine ornamental trade in Brazil.

Summary: Estuaries and coastal areas are undergoing rapid changes due to climate change and sea level rise. This research presents a salinity transport model for Biscayne Bay and investigates the potential impacts of altered precipitation, increased salinity/temperature, and sea level rise on bay salinity. The findings suggest that current restoration plans may not be sufficient to maintain current salinity conditions, and management measures such as urban greening, artificial groundwater recharge, and water consumption reduction should be considered.

Summary: The study shows that spatiotemporal simulation modeling is an effective tool for investigating management options in ecosystem-based fisheries management. It demonstrates that fisheries restricted areas can help rebuild the biomass of exploited stocks, but their effectiveness depends on the size and location of the areas. The study also suggests that a parallel reduction in total fishing effort is necessary to achieve the highest benefits of protection.
