1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background Trawl net is the most effective fishing gear in the world. Nevertheless, lately this fishing gear catch indicates some decreases. The decreases was caused by 2 (two) matters, are: 1). The degradation of the environment carrying capacity, 2). The pressure of the trawl net fishing gear. The pressure was occurred by the amount of this fishing gears operated by fishermen and the method this fishing gear operated. In the fishing method, one of the way to reduce by catch fish is introducing a selective fishing gear by using By Catch Reduction Devices. In the implementing of CCRF (Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries), from some countries and fisheries international organizations have a commitment to put selective fishing gear as a priority in utilising fish resources. In President Decree no. 39/1980 about Prohibition usage of trawl net in Indonesian territorial and in President Decree no. 85/1982 about By-catch Reduction Devices Implementation installed on the fishing shrimp trawl gear in Arafura sea. However, the implementing of the mentioned devices have not effective yet, due to caught sea shrimps decrease till 30%. Regarding to the above background, we would like to conduct an Introduction of Turtle Excluder Device/TED (Super Shooter) on Small Scale Eco-friendly Trawl Net in Makassar Strait Areas. 1.2. OBJECTIVES AND PURPOSE 1.2.1. Objectives 1. To give an understanding about the benefit of eco-friendly trawl net implementation; 2. To introduce design, construction and technical operation of ecofriendly trawl net; 3. To extent the proper installment of TEDs to the trawl net fishing gear; 4. To train the filling and using of fishing logbook. 1.2.2. Purpose Responsible fishing technology implementation will influence food security as a human food resources, ie: 1. Using TEDs, especially for shrimp trawl net, will reduce undeliberated caught of endanger species, such as: sea turtle, dugong, cucut. 2. Demonstration and experimental of TEDs proposed to Introduce responsible fishing technology. 3. As an implementation of Sustainable Fisheries Management Program for contribution of sea aquatic organism resources for food security and safety. 1

1.3. Funding This workshop was financed by FAO/GEF Symbol EP/ GLO/ 201/ GEF Project. 2

2. MATERIALS AND METHODS 2.1. Training Materials The workshop was focused on the installation of By-catch Reduction Devices/TEDs. The materials, are (both classical theory and outdoor practical), such as: a The Technical aspect of fishing gears; b The Selectivity aspect of fishing gears; c The Sustainability aspect of fisheries resources; d The Legal aspect of fisheries regulation. Some of the training aids was used in the workshop, such as: a. Two units of Super Shooter Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs) type Flat Bottom and Round Bottom b. Two units of fishing vessels were operated during the sea demonstration, ie: MV. Karya Nelayan 2 and MV. Madina. Both of them are stern trawl fishing vessels, 16 GT and 30 GT. 2.2. Training Methods Generally, the methods used for the workshop as follows: a. Class meeting As a provision materials for the workshop trainees was remarked at the opening and closing ceremony speech.

The Discussion Session, on which the trainees could ask more explanation on the above topics. This methods were aimed to give more chance for the trainees to understand the topics. It s hoped to fully help the practical activities (both in-land and on-board). 3.5. In-land Practical This part of the workshop was started by giving the explanation of the theory for BRDs (TEDs) construction and installation on trawl net. The trainers demonstrated and practised trainees on the installation of TED on trawl net. The activities consisted of: net cutting, TED installing, net connecting and elevation measuring. This practical was supported by the display as models of the net (had been installed each kind of the TEDs). Therefore, the trainees could directly see the performance of the installed BRDs on trawl net. It was held in the other side of the Tarakan Plaza Hotel East Kalimantan Province. 3.6. On-board Demonstration and Training This practical activity was held on the adjacent of Tarakan and Nunukan waters, Makassar Strait. During the sea demonstration, the trainees were divided into 2 (two) groups. The group (1) operated shrimp trawl net on which had been installed TED Super Shooter Flat Bottom type (MV. Madina, 30 GT). The group (2) operated shrimp trawl net on which had been installed TED Super Shooter Round Bottom type (MV. Karya Nelayan 2). This activity had been conducted since Tuesday, November 14 th and Wednesday, November 15 th, 2006. MV. Madina shooted the shrimp trawl net for 3 (three) times each day with bottom opening. Meanwhile, MV. Karya Nelayan 2 shooted the shrimp trawl net for 3 (three) times each day with upopening. 6

Super shooter specification Two types of bycatch reduction device round bottom type and flat bottom type built from steinless steel were used the sea trial. The round bottom type was built around a 105 cm high, 90 cm width, distance between bar 9 cm, frame diameter ¾ inch, bar diameter 5/8 inch. The flapper funnel for round bottom type super shooter was set at the upper part of the codend. Meanwhile, the flat bottom type super shooter was built around 117 cm high, 90 cm width, distance between bar 9,5 cm, frame diameter 1 inch, bar diameter ¾ inch. The flapper funnel for round bottom type super shooter was set in the bottom part of the codend. The specification for both types of TED as can be seen in Figure 1 and 2. During the sea trial a cover net was attached into the exit flapper, in order to investigate the escaped animals through the exit flapper. Figure 1.

Figure 1. Specification of the flat bottom type super shooter b. Sea trial Twelve hauls were carried out during daylight, at a towing speed ranged between 2. - 3. knots that lasted between 60 and 120 minutes. Depth ranged from 10 to 20 m. The two flat rectangular otterboards used during towing were 230 cm in length, 100 cm in width and had a depth of 9 cm (200 kg). c. Data Analysis After each haul, the total catch from the codend and cover was sorted into species. All of the fish were placed into baskets, weighed and the number of individuals were recorded. The standard length was measured for both codend and cover to the nearest 1.0 cm for determination of length frequency of the catch form codend and cover. d. Results Composition of the six times settings catch were devided into 2 (two) groups. First, TED TED Super shooter with round bottom types and second, TED super shooter with flat bottom. Each of which were weighted separately between the cod-end and the cover. 8
