The national program for monitoring escaped farmed salmon, which was designed and established on behalf of the Directorate of Fisheries following instructions from the Ministry of Trade and Fisheries in 2014, has quantified the incidence of escaped farmed salmon in 178 watercourses in 2021. The...

The effects of a salmon extract containing anserine (SEAns) on the exercise performance and anti-lassitude of student athletes was investigated. A placebo or SEAns capsule was administered to the subjects for 7 days. Each subject was subjected on the 8th day to exercise (1500 m time trial × 3...

Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., stocks worldwide have dwindled, and stricter recreational fishing regulations have been implemented. This study estimates the recreational value of salmon fishing under different regulatory schemes and identifies factors explaining changes in net economic value of ...

Atlantic salmon sport fisheries have declined remarkably in many countries and participation seems to correlate with salmon abundance. We investigated angling participation in the Atlantic salmon sport fishery in Norwegian rivers by incorporating facilitators for participation in a...

Salmonid sport fishery management in Argentinian Patagonia is usually guided by stakeholder perceptions, which do not consider the biological and ecological constraints acting upon aquatic resources. An example of this are management policies for Traful Lake, where Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L.,...

Catch-and-release (C&R) could be an interesting management tool in recreational fisheries as long as mortality remains low and the anglers' well-being does not drop. The researchers used a choice experiment to examine the potential of C&R angling as a monitoring tool for the salmon...

This paper presents a methodology that uses fishery data collected for the purpose of administering and monitoring harvest quotas in a recreational fishery to give additional insights into effectiveness of various fishing methods, and expected catch rates associated with different licence types....

The proportion of angled Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. being caught and released has increased. If individuals are repeatedly captured, this may have fish welfare consequences. Of 995 Atlantic salmon tagged during catch and release in eight Norwegian rivers, 10% were captured twice, while 3% were...

In this paper we model recreational anglers' decisions to voluntarily release their catch to improve fish stock conservation. Using a random utility framework, we compare anglers' utility of retaining and consuming fish versus increased stock conservation achieved by fish releases. The analysis is...

Wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout are in danger in several fisheries of the northern hemisphere due to anthropic activities. The pressures on fish stocks include excessive commercial and recreational harvests, as well as habitat depletion. In this paper, we present a choice experiment assessment...
