Abstract

Mini trawl fisheries is a fishing method typically used in small to medium-scale fisheries. It involves using a net with meshes large enough to prevent fish from getting trapped. However, using mini trawl can significantly impact the aquatic environment, including the waters in Cilincing, North Jakarta, Indonesia. This study has two objectives: (1) Determine the level of sustainability of mini trawl in Cilincing waters and (2) identify fishermen's perceptions of using mini trawl. The analysis method used in this research is by conducting interviews and the EAFM (Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management) approach. The ecosystem approach to fisheries management ensures the sustainability of fisheries. The results of this study show that the sustainability of mini trawl use in Cilincing is moderate. This result was obtained using the EAFM approach. The value obtained from the composite analysis of each domain in the EAFM indicator is 60.67, which is classified as moderate. Most (50%) of the set net fishermen in Cilincing waters showed a positive perception (in favor) of using set nets for fishing, and the remaining 40% were neutral, and 10% disagreed. The impact are fishing using mini trawls in Cilincing waters still maintains sustainable fish resources.
