Distribution pattern and fishing conditions of sandfish, Arctoscopus japonicus in the East Sae were explored using catch and catch per unit effort (CPUE) by eastern sea Danish seine and coastal gill net fisheries from 2004 to 2008. A. japonicus was one of major target species for the eastern sea Danish seine and coastal gill net fisheries in the East Sea, which were caught from April to October for the eastern Danish seine, and from October to December for the coastal gill net, respectively. In recent, the distribution and centroid of fishing ground moved northward, as seawater temperature increased. The species spawned in the coastal areas of Gangwon, northern East Sea, during winter, started to move to deeper water after spawning from spring, extended widely from Gangwon to Ulsan, southern East Sea, during summer, and migrated back to the spawning ground off Gangwon during autumn.

The mesh selectivity of gill net for Japanese sandfish (Arctoscopus japonicus) caught in the East Sea, Korea was described. The experiment was conducted with five different kinds of mesh size (39.4, 45.5, 51.5, 53.0, 57.6mm) between November and December 2006 in spawning season. The catch was mostly Japanese sandfish (93.3%) and some others (6.7%), and almost all of the female Japanese sandfish were larger than the fork length at 50% maturity (16.7cm). The selection curve for the female Japanese sandfish caught from the experiments was fitted by the Kitahara's method to a polynomial equation which was $s(R)={\exp}\{(0.2584R^3-5.3445R^2+32.269R-59.868)-0.6585\}$ where R＝l/m, and l and m are fork length and mesh size, respectively.

The monthly variation in species composition of fishes in the Gujora and Mangchi coastal waters in Geoje, Korea, was investigated between June 2018 and May 2019 through monthly fish collections using a gill net. A total of 46 species, numbering 410 individuals weighing a total of 96,645.0 g, were collected during the study period. The dominant species in terms of numbers were Chelidonichthys spinosus, Stephanolepis cirrhifer, Ditrema temmincki, Sillago japonica, Sebastes inermis, and Paraplagusia japonica. The number and biomass of fishes peaked in July. The peak in species diversity indices occurred in September. The cluster analysis revealed that there were four groups of fishes depending on the season. In addition, subtropical fishes were recorded in the study area, indicating the gradual subtropicalization of the coast of Geoje. Furthermore, the need to understand the changes in marine ecosystems owing to subtropicalization through continuous monitoring is emphasized.

The Relationship between the distribution of the fishing grounds of anchovy and the oceanographic conditions in the Korean Waters are investigated by using the data of the catch of anchovy by the gill net fishery (Fisheries Research and Development Agency, 1969-1982) and the oceanographic observation data (Fisheries Research and Development Agency, 1979). The main fishing ground of anchovy by the gill net fishery was five fishing areas located in the adjacent seas of Sockcho, Kuryong-po, Kijang, Keoje island and Chungmu, the area of which occupies no more than $20\%$ of all fishing grounds, and it appeared that about $80\%$ of mean catches of fourteen years was concentrated in this area. The main fishing periods were from April to June and October to November. The coefficient of variation of the catch for the main fishing ground were from 0.3 to 0.6 and the condition of all fishing ground was generally stable. The mean CPUE was 81.2 kg/set at the main fishing ground. The annual mean catch of anchovy by the gill net was the smallest in February and the largest in May through a year. It was found that the fluctuation is related to the expansion and reduction of the isothermal line of $10^{\circ}C$.

In order to investigate the relation between the environmental factors influencing on the fluctuation of fishing condition and the catch of anchovy in gill nets in the coastal waters of Yosu, five oceanographic factors, i.e., water temperature, salinity, chlorophyll-a and the catch of anchovy in gill nets are observed from June 6 to August 12 in 1993. The results obtained are summerized as follows: 1) The water temperature ranged from 16.$0^{\circ}C$ to 22.6$^{\circ}C$ and the salinity from 30.13$\textperthousand$ to 33.65$\textperthousand$. the water temperature and salinity showed no significant influence on the catch of anchovy, but the catch did not expose high values in low temperature and salinity. 2) The catch of anchovy increased with the amount of chlorophyll-a. It is therefore emphasized that the amount of chlorophyll-a is the greatest one of environmental factors influencing on the catch of anchovy.

In response to the global interest and efforts towards reducing plastic use and promoting resource recycling, there is a growing need to establish methods for recycling discarded fishing gear. In Korea, various technologies are being developed to recycle discarded fishing gear, but significant technical and policy challenges still remain. In particular, biodegradable gill nets require a pre-treatment process to separate biodegradable materials from other substances and to remove salt before recycling. Therefore, this study aims to develop a pre-treatment device for recycling biodegradable gill nets and to evaluate the feasibility of recycling them.

For the Purpose of the measurement of drifting condition of the anchovy drift gill net, some experiments were carried out in M. S Seong-Yang at the near sea of Kampo harbor in Korean east sea from August to October 1994, by using three set of GPS equipped with her net. The main results obtained are as follows : 1) In fixed position by GPS at Taebyon, the radius of 95% probability and shifted distance from standard position were respectively 79.8m, 21.0m. 2) The mean values of PDOP and HDOP of GPS at Taebyon were respectively 3.5, 1.9 and the stability of the position by GPS at Taebyon was found to be very high. 3) In the fishing ground of the position from Lat. $35^{\circ}$ 41.5'N to $Lat^{\circ}$. 43.5', from Long. $129^{\circ}$ 32.0'E to Long. $129^{\circ}$ 32.5'E, the direction of the whole stretched drift gill net was $190^{\circ}$ and the direction of the whole casted net was $200^{\circ}$ when casting the net was finished. When whole net was found to be drifting into the direction of $170^{\circ}\;to\;180^{\circ}$, and the mean drifting speed of that was 0.82kt. 4) In the fishing ground of the position from Lat. $35^{\circ}$ 44.0'N to Lat. $35^{\circ}$ 45.2'N, from Long. $129^{\circ}$ 30.1'E to Long. $129^{\circ}$ 31.2'E, the direction of the whole stretched net was 20$^{\circ}$ and the direction of the whole stretched net was $20^{\circ}$ when casting the net was finished. When hauling the net, the direction of the spreaded net appeared from the North into the South and the whole net was found to be drifting into the direction of $210^{\circ}\;to\;220^{\circ}$, and the mean drifting speed of that was 0.75kt. 5) In the fishing ground of the positioning from Lat. $35^{\circ}$ 44.9'N to Lat. $35^{\circ}$ 46.0'N, Long. $129^{\circ}$ 33.0'E to Long. $129^{\circ}$ 34.0'E, the direction to the whole stretched net was $35^{\circ}$ and the direction of the whole casted net was $50^{\circ}$ when casting the net was finished. When hauling the net, the direction of the spreaded net appeared into the South from the East and the whole net was found to be drifting into the direction of $330^{\circ}\;to\;40^{\circ}$, and the mean drifting speed of the was 0.63kt.

It was investigated and analized on the construction and hull form for the ordinary fishing boat of south coast in Korea, and then analogized on the shipbuilding technology of fishing boat and fishing type around 1900 by B-spline form parameter method. The results obtained can be summarize as follows : (1) It was known that the boats used in this study have more narrow hull form than that of ancient fishing boats and their hull form was improved around 1900. (2) Keel was composed of bar keel with angle cross section. The stem corner have a material of bar stem and makes a sharp pointed stem. (3) Shell plate was jointed by the rabbetted clinker joint method. (4) It was investigated that anchovy drag net fishing boat has high L/B, L/D, B/D value as compared with drift gill net fishing boat. (5) Two boats have a good stability and particularly anchovy drag net fishing boat have a better stability value in comparison to the drift gill net fishing boat.
