Abstract

Length-frequency data of eight commercial fish species in the Beibu Gulf (Golf of Tonkin)

northern South China Sea

were collected during 2006–2007. Length-weight relationships and growth and mortality parameters were analyzed using FiSAT II software. Five species had isometric growth

two species had negative allometric growth

and one species had positive allometric growth. Overall

the exploitation rates of the eight species were lower in 2006–2007 than in 1997–1999: for four species (Saurida tumbil

Saurida undosquamis

Argyrosomus macrocephalus

and Nemipterus virgatus) it was lower in 2006–2007 than in 1997–1999

for two species (Parargyrops edita and Trichiurus haumela) it remained the same

and for the other two species (Trachurus japonicus and Decapterus maruadsi) it was higher in 2006–2007 than in 1997–1999. The exploitation rates might have declined because of the decline in fishing intensity caused by high crude oil prices. The optimum exploitation rate

estimated using Beverton-Holt dynamic pool models

indicated that although fishes in the Beibu Gulf could sustain high exploitation rates

the under-size fishes at first capture resulted in low yields. To increase the yield per recruitment

it is more effective to increase the size at first capture than to control fishing effort.
