    Description: Kainji Lake is a man-made Lake and is impounded in 1968 to generate hydroelectric power. The Lake also offers opportunities for developmental projects like Fisheries and Irrigation. Lake Kainji receives organic waste through husbandry operations in which the cattle defecate into and around the bank of the Lake. Other sources of pollution include runoff from farms, bathing and washings in the Lake. Surrounding villages e.g. Tarda and Musawa used the Lake as source of raw drinking water and also for other domestic purposes. Bacteriological quality of fish and water from the Lake is carried out as well as that of cow dung by using primary isolation media and biochemical analysis. Physico-chemical parameters of water from the Lake is also determined. Total viable bacteria count and total coliform count of the water range from 3.4 x 104 to 03.8x 106 Cfu/ml and 1.4 x 103to 2.1 x 105Cfu/ml respectively. Cow dung has total coliform count of 6.9 x 105 while fish gills has total coliform count of 1.6x103cfu/g. Bacteria species such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Aeromanas hydrophila, and shigella species were found in the water body. Escherichia coli, Aeromonas hydrophila, and Salmonella species were found in the fish samples. Escherichia coli, Aeromonas hydrophila, Shigella species and Salmonella species were isolated from cow dung. Physicochemical Parameters such as DO, BOD and N03-N range from 4. 7 to 5.2mg/l, 0.2 to 0.9mg/1 and 7.0 to 9.3 mg/l respectively. This result shows that Kainji Lake is an intermediately polluted water. It is therefore necessary that cow dung used for fertilization of fish ponds should be screened for pathogens before use. It is also recommended that pollution of surface water bodies through human activities should be discourage by legislation on water pollution.

    Description: Ten specimens of African cuttlefish, Sepia bertheloti, from the coastal waters off Qua Iboe River, Southeast Nigeria, were analyzed for the relationship between the concentration of the elements and the size of the species. Energy Dispersive X-ray fluorescence technique was employed to determine the elemental composition of the species. Eleven elements were identified in the body of cuttlefish. These were Chlorine, Strontium, Potassium, Calcium, Bromine, Iron, Copper, Zinc, Manganese, Nickel and Selenium of these elements, the concentration of calcium, potassium. Copper and strontium had a positive correlation with the weight, while the concentrations of manganese, nickel, chlorine, iron were negatively correlated with their weights. However, only manganese had a significantly negative correlation (p〈0. 05). Bromine and zinc had no correlation with the weights of the species. There also existed a significant positive correlation between Ca and K, Se and Ni, Cu, Br and Zn and St and K. We conclude that African cuttlefish, irrespective of size is a rich source of nutritional elements and is especially recommended for pregnant women and for all age groups.

    Description: This study set out to investigate the participation of women in fisheries in some fishing communities in Wamakko Local Government Area of Sokoto state. It succeeded in establishing the fact that women are active though to some extent in fisheries in this area. This is as a result of the prevailing socio-cultural, as well as religious set up which revolves round task sharing. It however highlighted the fact that women's contribution in the fisheries sub-sector is necessary to improve their livelihood and by so doing, to directly help households.

    Description: Chlorpyrifos-ethyl with its mode of action was evaluated in laboratory studies to determine its 96-h acute toxicity, using juveniles of Clarias gariepinus. The fish was exposed in glass aquaria to 0.64~cmg/l, 0.80mg/l, 0.96mg/l, 1.12mg/1 and 1. 28mg/1. The test substance was found to have lethal effects on fish as they changed fish behaviour and caused death. The 96-hLC50 value for C. gariepinus was estimated as 0.92mgl-1. Observations of be bavioural and mophlogical responses were used as indicators of sublethal toxicity. The behavioural toxicology bioassay may be valuable in comparing and predicting the mode of action of new or unknown toxicants in this and other fish species.

    Description: Scientists and researchers agree that developmental projects should have impact on the targeted groups. In this context a review was made on the indigenous knowledge system in fishery with a view to elucidating the indispensability of the system due to the increasing acceptance globally. The importance of the system and the factors militating against it where shown. The relationship between fisheries science and the fisher's knowledge was also discussed. Some indigenous practices as well as equipment used by different people were cited. It was concluded that local knowledge of the environment and resources used, as well as the society within which the resultant goods and benefits are distributed is fundamental to the continuity of sound community based management practices. Recommendation was made for research to be conducted in every facet of fishery traditional system with a view to fusing the two; the indigenous and scientific to complement each another.

    Description: Fish Aggregating Devices (FADs) were experimented in Lake Kainji using worn out automobile lyres and cement blocks for a period of 12 weeks. Six tyres and blocks were tied together separately in 3 replicates and randomly suspended in the lake at a depth of 2 metre and 50 meter interval. After 8 weeks of suspension, a fleet of gillnets with 76mm mesh size and hung at E-value 0.5 were zigzag set across the suspended FADs for 12 fishing periods with 13 hrs soak time (~c1.0268.D.) per period The trial showed that the cement block FADs attracted more fish (70% of the total fish caught) belonging to 6 different species. The lyres FADs attracted only 3 species of fish constituting some 30% of the total fish caught Citharinus citharus dominated the catch of the block FADs constituting 52.3% of the total catch, while Oreochromis niloticus was 46.4% of the tyre FADs. The Horizontal Enhanced Fishing Zone (EFZ) was found to be between 5 to 12 metres from the location of the FADs. There was significant different (P〈0.05) in the catches of the two FADs.

    Description: Studies on the effects of two fishing baits on the catch composition of Malian Traps in Lake Kainji were monitored. The Traps were set at Monia fishing village in the southern basin of the Lake Baited with boiled yam (Dioscorea rotundata) and fresh palm fruit (Elaeis guineensis) and were inspected twice daily for seven weeks. The fishes caught comprised of nine (9) species belonging to four (4) families. The result of analysis of variance of the biomass as well as number and percentages of fishes caught in the traps by the baits showed there was no significant difference (P〉0.05). However, both baits showed better efficiency for Tilapia zilli, Oreochromis niloticus and Hemichromis fasciatus than other species caught but trap baited with fresh palm fruit had better efficiency for Distichodus restratus and Alestes nurse. There was wide range between the minimum and the maximum size of species caught, which showed the efficiency of the traps capturing small size, juveniles and the adult of large fish species due to small mesh size (1'') net cover of the trap. Recommendations were made for better performance and profitable fishing of Malian traps.

    Description: Research was carried out to explore the fish species diversity and study some aspects of the biology of fish of Daberam reservoir, Katsina state, Nigeria, for a period of three month from March to May 2009. Samples were collected from commercial fishermen and experimental fishing gears, preserved in formalin and taken to laboratory for identification; confirmation was done by fisheries experts. Eight genus comprising ten species were identified. The regression coefficient (b) was 3.07, 2.91 and 3.21 for the three most commercially importance species in the reservoir i.e. Oreochromis niloticus, and Clarias gariepinus respectively which indicated Positive allometric growth for O. niloticus and C. gariepinus and negative allometric growth for T. nilotica. The mean condition factor (k) was 1.140, with values of 1.027and 0.732 for O. niloticus and C. gariepinus, respectively. This indicates that the fish are not leaving well compared to other freshwater fishes.

    Description: This paper examines the role of middlemen in the marketing of smoked fish in Doron Baga fish market of Kukawa Local Government Area of Borno State. Data were obtained from 200 respondents using stratified random sampling technique, with the aid of structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistical tools. Secondary sources of information were also gathered from research papers, reports and journals. The study revealed that, there are two types of middlemen in the Doron Baga fish market: selling brokers (Dillali) accounting for 75% and buying brokers (Yan acha) 25%. The role played by the selling brokers includes selling for the fishermen with commission, lending money to fishermen and providing security for the unsold fish. Buying brokers assist those that want to buy fish while the buyer gives them little amount of money as commission. Brokers get more clients when the fish during periods of maximum catch. The problems the middlemen face are failure of the fishermen to pay back the money borrowed from the selling brokers while buyers hardly trust the buying brokers.
