According to the catch condition of Scomberomorus niphonius in autumn season affected greatly, the catch price for the set net fishery. Catch production and the selling price were relatively even except 2009 showing a great big blooming jellyfish of Nemopliema nomurai in 2008~2011. The fishing cost of the set net fishery in Yeosu has increased gradually by the decrease of catch production and unexpected environmental change like as jelly fish blooming. The increase of fishing cost diminished net income and caused a negative impact in profitability. The lowest Fisheries ratio of gross profit to gross costs the set net fishery were appeared 60.2% in 2010, respectively.Bycatch was highest in 2008 and lowest in 2009. In general, the bycatch was occurred from May to July every year and when Scomber japonicus was most dominant in the catch price by bycatch had a advantage in the profit side. However, the catch increase of immature small fishes by the bycatch, which will bring about the decrease of fisheries resources. Finally, the present state in set net fisheries will act as a defect on the long-term management of fisheries resources.
The annual and monthly fluctuation in the species composition and the catch abundance of dominant species were analyzed using the daily sales slip catch data by a set net in the offshore waters off Dolsan Island in Yeosu from March 2004 to December 2011. Mean catch from 2004 to 2011 is 372M/T and the maximum and the minimum catch are 526 M/T in 2005 and 27 2M/T in 2009, respectively. The dominant species were Engraulis japonicus mainly in spring and Scomberomorous niphonius in Autumn and therefore the set net catch that is dominated by S. niphonius's catch was much higher in autumn than in spring. Through comparative analyses for the environmental factors to the annual catch fluctuation, it is revealed that the water temperature variation affected the recruitment property of S. niphonius to the fishing ground but the effect of typhoon on the catch fluctuation was not distinct. Furthermore, the big blooming event of jellyfish, particularly Nemopilema nomurai, that occurred in 2009 showed a tendency of faster appearance and later extinction until December. The occurring characteristic of N. nomurai became a direct cause that brought about the lowest total catch in 2009 since the dominant species catch of the set net fishery was concentrated mostly in Autumn.
정치망어업에 의한 최근 15년 간(1971~1985년)의 어획통계자료를 이용하여 어획량의 경년변동과 계절변동, 해역별 및 어종별 어획량 변동 등을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 정치망어업의 어획량은 1971년에 16,787M/T, 1985년에 84,103M/T으로서 대체로 증가추세에 있으며, 1978년부터 급격히 어획량이 증가하기 시작하여 1979년에 99,475M/T으로서 최대치를 나타내었는데, 이것은 쥐치가 대량 어획되어 어획량의 64%를 차지하였고, 1976년 수산어법의 개정에 따른 통계수치의 증가에 원인이 있으며, 연안 수온의 변화와도 밀접한 관계가 있었다. 2. 월평균어획량이 10~11월에 8,000~12,000M/T으로서 년평균 어획량의 32%를 차지하므로 정치망어업의 주어기는 10~11월로 볼 수 있다. 3. 1976년 이전에는 남해구에서, 1977~1980년에 동해구에서 정치망어업을 주도해 왔으나, 1981년 이후에는 그 경향이 불규칙하였다. 4. 어획량변동의 유사성 측면에서 볼 때, 어종별 어획량변동은 뱅어, 도루묵, 갈치, 멸치, 등과 같이 어획량이 감소하는 군, 노가리, 밴댕이, 망둥어, 전어, 양미리, 쥐치 등과 같이 증가하는 군 및 그 외 증감경향이 불분명한 군의 3개 군으로 대별할 수 있다
