| During the last five years, the local swordfish (Xiphias gladius) longline fishery has experienced rapid growth and development. The longline catches reached more than 2,300 t in 1997. Responsibility for collecting data on Réunion fisheries for submission to FAO lies with the local fisheries office “Direction Départementale des Affaires Maritimes” (DDAM). Moreover, since 1993, IFREMER has been collecting and compiling scientific and technical information on longline fisheries operating in the French EEZ and international waters. Data are collected from voluntary maintenance of logbooks thanks to regular at-sea and landing samplings, as well as on-board scientific observers. This paper presents the characteristics of this new longline fishery, describes the... |

| The Réunion fishery has experienced rapid growth and development in all segments (artisan fishery, Antarctic deep sea fishery, longline fishery) for the last five years, in marked contrast to the situation experienced by the huge majority of other European Union fishing communities. The longlining sector, which began five years ago, has shown the most rapid of development. Longlining has, since 1996, not only equalled but overtaken the artisan fishery, with more than 2,300 t production in 1997 and an active fleet of 21 vessels which range from 9 to 33 m long. This fishery targets swordfish (Xiphias gladius) mainly throughout the year, from the equator to 32oS, using deep freeze conservation techniques. The artisanal segment has also shown a rapid extension... |
