Ecosystem, Skipjack Fisheries, Tactical DecisionsAbstract
Skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) holds significant economic value for fishermen in East Flores Regency, captured using pole and line methods in the Sawu Sea and Flores Sea waters. Increased fishing efforts, expanding fishing grounds, and limited live bait availability pose management challenges. This research was conducted in Larantuka, East Flores Regency, East Nusa Tenggara Province. This study aims to evaluate the status of skipjack tuna fisheries using pole and line methods in East Flores Regency through the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM) and to develop tactical decisions for improving skipjack tuna fisheries management in Fisheries Management Area (FMA) 573, particularly in local fishing grounds. The research methodology applied EAFM focusing on two domains: fish resources and ecosystem habitat. Assessment results for both domains showed similar status, categorized as moderate. The fish resources domain achieved a total score of 170, while the ecosystem habitat domain scored 205. Therefore, the recommended tactical measures in the resource domain include operational regulation of live bait fishing to ensure continuous availability of live bait, education on appropriate fish size for capture, provision of additional fish aggregating devices (FADs), and fishing ground mapping for fishermen. Meanwhile, in the ecosystem habitat domain, the tactical measures that need to be implemented include live bait area management through open-close area systems and assessment of climate change impacts at the study site as an information source for mitigation efforts for affected fishermen.
