Description:

Marine mammal and sea turtle bycatch in the California/Oregon large mesh drift gillnet fishery for thresher shark and swordfish is summarized for calendar year 2006. Observer coverage for 2006 was 18.5%, based on 266 observed fishing sets and an estimated 1,433 sets fished by all vessels. Observed bycatch totals were six short-beaked common dolphin (Delphinus delphis), one long-beaked common dolphin (D. capensis), twelve California sea lions (Zalophus californianus) and one loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta). All marine mammals were dead upon retrieval, and the sea turtle was released alive. Estimated bycatch is 32 (CV = 0.52) short-beaked common dolphin; 5 (CV = 1.04) long-beaked common dolphin; 64 California sea lions (CV = 0.43); and 5 loggerhead sea turtles (CV = 1.11). Of the five estimated loggerhead turtle entanglements, only one mortality is predicted, based on the observed fraction of loggerhead turtles (81%) released alive in this fishery.
