| Abstract | ||
| Various theories regarding the linkage of fish resources and human resources (fishermen) have been discussed and become alternatives in relation to fisheries management. One of the most important to be studied in studying human interrelationships and fish resources is the dynamics of fishing gear. The fishermen’s decision to operate fishing gear is essentially a function of various factors, both internal and external. In order to describe the factors that influence fisherman behaviour in allocate fishing gear, we have studied the relationship of external factors to fishing gear allocation and the catch landing. On this occasion, we have studied the fishing gear allocation pattern and correlation of external factors (fishing ground, fishing seasons, and their interaction) to purse seine allocation and their catch landing in Bone, South Sulawesi. The results of the study indicated that purse seine allocations were similarly between season but significantly different between fishing grounds. Meanwhile, the main catch landing relating to purse seine catches (scads and skipjack) were significantly different between seasons and fishing grounds partially. However, the further analysis confirmed that interaction between the fishing ground and fishing season only affects skipjack but does not affect scads. | ||
