about this report In order to evaluate the potential effectiveness of C&R management practices to priority-management marine and freshwater fish species in the Integrated Aquatic Resources Management Between Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland (IBIS) study area, factors that influence post-release mortality and sub-lethal effects have been reviewed from the primary literature. This is followed by more specific accounts of the efficacy of C&R management practices for six priority fish species or groups in the IBIS study area: Atlantic salmon Salmo salar, brown and sea trout Salmo trutta, northern pike Esox lucius, skate (Rajidae) spp. and shark (Selachimorpha) spp. |
