Abstract
In this study, catch composition and catch efficiency of the species captured from the Beymelek lagoon on the western Mediterranean coast of Turkey in 2007-2008 season were investigated. The highest catch rates of the species caught with gill nets and fishing trap, existing lagoon system were gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata L., 1758) 75.4%, thick-lipped mullet (Chelon labrosus Risso, 1827) 11.3%, sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L., 1758) 5.2%, striped mullet (Mugil cephalus L., 1758) 5.1%, grey mullet (Liza ramada Risso, 1810) 1.7%, striped seabream (Lithognathus mormyrus L., 1758) 0.8%, white grouper-dusky grouper (Epinephelus aeneus-Epinephelus marginatus) 0.5% and white seabream (Diplodus sargus L., 1758) 0.1%. The average lengths of the fishes, which had the highest catch rates,such as seabream, thick-lipped mullet, sea bass, striped mullet and grey mullet, were 23.3±0.41 cm, 31.4±0.71 cm, 30.3±1.13 cm, 34.6±1.11 cm and 30.1±0.18 cm respectively. The amount of fish per unit area obtained from the Beymelek lagoon was determined as 21.3 kg/ha.
