2017 - 2018 Centre for Environment, Fisheries & Aquaculture Science (Cefas) Survival of discarded catch in the Wash Brown Shrimp Fishery 2017/18 - Fisheries Science Partnership
FSP Survival of discarded catch in the Wash Brown Shrimp Fishery
The objectives of this project were to: • Use captive observations of *Crangon crangon* to assess the survival of discarded Crangon in the Wash Brown Shrimp Fishery in vessels using different catch sorting devices (rotary riddle and flat screen riddle). • Assess the vitality and generate inferred survival estimates of discarded fish species, primarily plaice and sole, in the Wash Brown Shrimp Fishery in vessels using different catch sorting devices (rotary riddle and flat screen riddle). • Identify best practice to minimise discard mortality

The Wash Brown Shrimp ( *Crangon crangon* ) fishery is a major fishery for vessels working from The Wash ports (mostly Boston and King’s Lynn) in the east of England, accounting for a large proportion of the gross earnings of vessels from these ports. Despite targeting a non-quota species, *Crangon crangon* (hereafter called Crangon), it has high levels of unwanted catch of small fish, mainly small plaice, and sole and whiting. While Crangon will not be subject to the landing obligation (LO), the main bycatch species will be subject to the LO from 2019. Additionally, there is significant motivation from the industry in demonstrating high survival of discarded Crangon in the fishery as this fishery is currently seeking MSC accreditation <span style="font-size: medium;">...</span>
