1982~88년 사이 한국건착망 어업의 망선 48척의 어황일보에 의한 조업해구, 어종별 어획량의 자료를 이용하여 5개 해역별로 어획량의 특성을 분석하였다. 이들 해역중 제주도 연안해역(CC)은 양망회수와 어획량은 많으나 양망당어획량이 타해역보다 적으므로, 조업중 어구의 형상에 대해 계측한 자료를 이용하여 저층류에 의한 망형변화에 대해 분석한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 건착망의 평균 CPUE는 31.6톤인데 음 10~4월은 평균보다 높고, 음 5~9월은 낮았다. 2. 건착망 어장 5개 해역중 CC해역은 양망회수비 42.4%로서 가장 높고 CPUE는 25.7톤으로 낮았으며, 각 해역별 CPUE는 1%의 유의수준에서 차가 인정되었다. 3. 고등어 CPUE의 계절변동지수는 음 11~1월에 평균 136.3%였고, 음 5~10월에 평균 63.7%였다. 4. 저층류에 의한 역조시 선망권의 직경은 가장 짧았고, 이때 납줄에 의한 포위면적은 더욱 좁아지며 어군의 포위효율은 낮아졌다. 5. 저층류에 의한 납줄의 형상은, 순조의 경우 유향으로 장원형이 되었고, 역조의 경우 유향과 직교되는 방향으로 장원형이 되면서 포위면적이 급히 축소되었으며, 망의 변형은 역조의 경우 가장 심하였다.

Mackerel purse seine fishery is one of the most important fisheries in Korea and its annual mean catch from 1982 to 1988 is 350 thousand tons. Between 1982 and 1988, the characteristics of catch at 5 sectors of the sea area was analyzed according to operating sea block and the catch by fishes based on the data obtained from daily report of fishing condition that had been made out by 48 Korean fishing boats engaged in the fishery of purse seine. In these 5 sectors of the sea area, catch per net hauling in the coastal area of Cheju Island is less than that in the other sectors. Accordingly, the shape of fishing gear during operation has been measured to analyzed the deformation of net shape caused by the bottom current. (The lunar calender is used in the paper) The results obtained are as follows; The average CPUE of purse seines is 31.6 tons and it is higher from October to April than that from May to September. In the 5 purse seine fishing grounds, the ratio of net haul in the coastal sea area of cheju Island is 42.4% and it is the highest level, but the CPUE is 25.7 tons which is relatively low level. Each CPUE in the sea areas is significant differences with 1% level. Index of seasonal variation of mackerel CPUE from May to October is lower than the standard value, whereas index from November to January is higher. The diameter of circle by net shooting becomes shorter to the minimum caused by the bottom current during loose set, becomes narrower and the efficiency of fish encirclement becomes lower. The shape of leadline by bottom current becomes long oval type along with current direction in the tight set, while it becomes long oval type in the direction of a right angle to the current direction and the enclosed area is reduced hurriedly, and the deformation of net is most serious in the loose set.
