French to English: Shark Fisheries in Guinea Detailed field: Fisheries
Source text - French Pêcheries de Requins en Guinée : Engins de pêche utilisées pour capturer les requins
La pêche artisanale utilise principalement des filets maillants calé grandes mailles avec ou sans glacière; des filets maillant dérivant à ethmalose ; des filets maillant encerclant à ethmalose, à otolithes ; des lignes et des palangres. Les palangres et les filets maillant calé à grandes mailles capturent le plus de Requins, suivi des filets dérivant à ethmalose.
En pêche industrielle, les Requins représentent des captures accessoires de tous les types de licences autorisés en Guinée (pélagiques, démersaux, céphalopodiers et crustacés).
Etat des stocks de Requins, espèces dominantes et indice d’abondante des raies et requins en Guinée
L’indice d’abondance des raies et requins a été déterminé en tant que prises accessoires. L’analyse de ce graphique montre une nette tendance de diminution de captures du point de vue indice d’abondance depuis les campagnes de 1991 à 2002. Cela s’explique d’une part, par l’intensification de l’exploitation de la ressource ces dix dernières années par l’accroissement du nombre de pêcheurs étrangers spécialisés à la pêche aux Requins et d’autre part, par l’accroissement du nombre de flottilles en pêche industrielle qui débarquent d’importantes quantités de captures accessoires.
Translation - English Shark fisheries in Guinea: fishing gears used to capture shark
Artisanal fisheries use mainly large meshed anchored-set gillnets with or without ice-box; drift gillnets for capturing bonga shads; encircling gillnets for catching bonga shads and otholits; fishing lines and long lines. The long lines and the encircling gillnets are most efficient for catching sharks, followed by the drift gillnets.
In industrial fisheries, sharks are landed as bycatch of all in Guinea authorised licence types (pelagic, demersal, cephalopod, crustaceans)
Status of shark populations and their abundance index in Guinea
The abundance index of rays and sharks was obtained from bycatches. The analysis of this graph shows a clear tendency towards decrease in shark capture from the abundance index point of view since the campaigns from 1991 to 2002. This can on the one hand be explained by the greater exploitation of resources during the past ten years, by the increase of foreign fishermen specializing in shark fishing and on the other hand by the increase of industrial fishing fleets, that land important amounts of bycatch.
