THE CO-EXISTENCE OF RECREATIONAL AND ARTISANAL FISHERIES IN THE CENTRAL PARTS OF THE DANUBE AND SAVA RIVERS

Sažetak
The official data on recreational and artisanal fisheries in Croatia and
Hungary were analysed. The data from Croatia relates to the entire
Croatian section of the Danube River and to the section of the Sava River
along the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina. The data from Hungary
covers 60 km of the Danube River north of the Croatian border. Absolute
catches in kilograms, as well as CPUE (kg per fisherman per year) by both
groups in all three river sections varied from year to year without dramatic
changes. Fishing with nets, artisanal fishermen differ from the anglers in
two major ways: they are less selective and they catch bigger specimens.
According to the official data, the existing ratio between recreational and
artisanal fishermen in these three river sections does not negatively affect
each other’s or overall fishing. Therefore, a conclusion can be drawn that
medium-intensive artisanal fisheries qualify to co-exist with recreational
fisheries.
