Özet
This study reports on the yield of commercially important species captured intentionally around and under fish-cage farms using specific types of gear from both sea-cage farmers and artisanal fishermen, and to identify the species composition of these catches. The 2004-2008 research was carried out in 21 fish farms, randomly chosen along the coast of Izmir Province on the Aegean Sea. A total of 91 persons were interviewed, including directors, fishers from the fish farms and artisanal fishermen. The technical characteristics of a special trap used by some fish farmers were diagramed. Total wild fish catch quantities as well the species raised in the sea-cages were recorded. A total of 34 finfish and four invertebrate species were identified from the sea-cage farm fishery. Eight fish species according to the descending quantities raised were bogue (Boops boops), grey mullet (Mugil spp.), blackspot seabream (Pagellus bogaraveo), salema (Sarpa salpa), common two-banded seabream (Diplodus vulgaris), annular seabream (Diplodus annularis), striped seabream (Lithognathus mormyrus) and gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata). Mean quantities of wild fish caught from 2004 to 2008 in a sampled farm were 13 998 ± 210, 34 434 ± 482, 30 116 ± 529, 27 893 ± 429, and 32 366 ± 808 kg, respectively. There were significant differences between fish amounts and years (P < 0.05). © 2009 Blackwell Verlag, Berlin.
