3.1. TABLE OF THE CATCH EVALUATION FROM 1953 TO 1989 FOR LAKES EDWARD/MOBUTU

Lake Mobutu: in 1989, Zaire had 1,430 boats
Uganda had 1,349 boats.

Lake Edward: in 1988, Zaire had 700 boats
(without L. George) Uganda had 980 boats, only 400 were authorized.

APPENDIX 4
CATCH ASSESSMENT SURVEYS

1. Objectives:

To assess/estimate catch/effort levels for a specific water body over a specific period of time.

Definition of statistical units to be derived from CAS comprise:

• weight by species and for all species combined;

• value by species and for all species combined;

• total effort + CPUE (weight) by species and all species combined;

• spatial distribution per species by gear.

2. Statistical units and definitions:

Catch = nominal amount expressed in weight (kg) of fresh fish landed.

Fishing effort = refers to all “efforts” (time, labour, technology, etc…) applied to catching fish.

Unit of fishing effort = “effort” applied by one fishing unit during one day.

CPUE = Catch of one fishing unit for one day.

Fishing Unit = integral combination consisting of the boat, the crew and the gear to carry out fishing operations.

3. The minimum requirements of the units to be produced by catch assessment survey (CAS) at regional level are the following:

1. Annual catch statistics by weight and value by species with an indication of the variance/confidence limits;

2. total effort in terms of number of fishing units;

3. mean catch per unit effort on monthly basis and annual basis;

4. present collection procedures as described in the synopsis should retain national responsibility because of regional difference;

5. presentation of results: fishing characteristics, administrational structure, manpower/equipment/logistic availability etc…, should be standardised for the CAS procedures for collection and analysis of data; and

6. each country produce annually a summary of their CAS results including a brief description of methodology of data acquisition and processing (including sampling error calculation procedures).

4. Constraints:

• lack of training CAS methodology;

• lack of means (personnel, equipment) to execute proper CAS surveys;

• lack of exchange of information on CAS results;

• lack of forum for Lake Albert and Edward annual regional statistical consultations; and

• lack of collaboration at national/regional levels between Fisheries Departments and Fisheries Research Institutions.
