The fishing lamp is a fishing gear that gathers fish at night. But the cost of oil, which is used to light fishing lamp, has been risen significantly up to 30-40% of total fishing costs. Therefore it is very urgent to develop an energy economical fishing lamp in order to solve the business difficulties of fisheries. Under this background, this research aims at developing a fishing lamp for squid jigging and hairtail angling fishery using the LED, which has excellent energy efficiency and durability. The LED fishing lamp developed can be controlled to fix a fit direction of fish shoal deep because a fishing lamp can be adjustable up and down directions. One unit of fishing lamp has about an 80Watt capacity and the frame of fishing lamp is made of aluminium to emit generated heat of LED to outside. The LED lamp developed was highly durable, only 5.7% of emitting efficiency decreased for 18 months. The illuminance of a unit LED lamp was 2,070lux at 1m and 21lux at 10 m distance, and the intensity of LED lamp system emitted 2,580lux and 400lux at the respective distances. After development of this fishing lamp, 100 units are installed on operating fishing vessels. Experimental results show that energy consumption of squid jigging and hairtail angling was reduced by 40% and 87%, respectively. In conclusion, our methods showed elevated fishing power, compared with traditional fishing method: 37.7% for squid jigging and 24.5% for hairtail angling.

In this study it will be discussed how to solve the problem of discomfort from rolling motion on the fishing boats. Most discomfort is caused by the short cycle of rolling due to the light weight of the boats. The light weight is due to the FRP material which dries a boat. A way to improve the feeling of boarding by using fish hold was researched. The experiment was done on experimental fishing boat made by FRP in Jeju. An existing fish hold was designed and manufactured through the rolling test and that was used for a marine experiment. The rolling condition of the U-tank boat ideally designed was compared to that of an existing fishing boat using the same conditions. The experiments were carried out two times on the stop engine in the outward Sehwa fishing port, which the experimental data had analysed for effects of rolling reduction to compare the U - tank with the of exiting fish hold. The results were confirmed that the U-boat tank in the roll period and GoM were more safe than the existing fish hold and the average amplitude and significant of rolling angles were decreased relatively.

재래식 권현망의 천장망을 제거하고 옆판 위 언저리에 뜸을 장치한 어구에 의하여 활멸치의 어획을 시험하고, 동시에 이렇게 어획한 멸치를 버팀대를 써서 축양조를 예인하는 방법으로 축양 시험을 실시한 결과 대략 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 축양개시 15일후의 생잔률은 최고 약 71%여서 다른 어구. 어법에 의한 생잔률 보다는 낮지마는, 권현먕 어구 자체가 한국의 멸치 어업에서는 가장 보편화된 어구이므로, 2차적으로 활멸치를 어획하는데는 충분한 실용성이 있다고 보아진다.
