Description:
The present contribution summarizes results of fisheryinvestigations with gillnets and longlines in the wintercod fishery which had been carried out in the westernBaltic region from 1996 to 1999 by the Bundesforschungsanstalt für Fischerei with financial aid ofthe country Schleswig-Holstein. The main goal of theseinvestigations was to point out technological possibilities for a reduction of unwanted bycatches ofsea ducks in gillnetting. As it is obviously impossibleto reduce the local and temporal bycatch problem bymeans of different gillnet constructions or tacticalmeasurements, only the temporary avoidance of fishinggrounds with high abundance of ducks or the changeto longlining as catch method with reduced duckbycatches may be an effective solution.
