Assessment of the by-catch and discards
is a biological sampling which has been carried out on the fishing sea of
the Republic of Slovenia since 2006. The sampling takes
place six times per year on different fishing vessels. Each year we sample catches
obtained with three types of fishing gears.
The data is collected by experts from the
Institute, who operate as observers on the fishing vessels. Biological material
which is intended to be kept by the fishermen, are processed on the deck of the
fishing vessel, while the discard is processed in the laboratory. The data is entered on the standardized forms
and then transferred to the database.

The goal of the assessment of the by-catch
and discards is the collection of qualitative and quantitative data on catch,
which enables the assessment of the actual catch for individual type of fishing gear.
Besides
that, we are establishing the relationships between targeted and accidental
species caught with specific types of fishing gears.
