fishery in the Falkland Islands is limited to two vessels that must operate to
seabird conservation measures. Approximately 7.5 million hooks and 9.6 million
hooks were set in 2002/03 and 2003/04, respectively, with observers present
during the setting of 59% of all lines and observing 22% of all hooks recovered
during the period. Eight mortality events were recorded during the two years,
involving a total of 29 and eight Black-browed Albatrosses <i>Thalassarche
melanophrys</i></span><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:12.0pt'>, giving an
observed catch rate of 0.011 and 0.005 seabirds/1000 hooks in 2002/03 and
2003/04, respectively. Based on these by-catch rates, the total estimated total
mortality for 2002/03 was 80 Black-browed Albatrosses (95% confidence limits
58–102) and for 2003/04, 44 Black-browed Albatrosses (28–62). The total
estimated number of seabirds secondarily hooked decreased from 239 seabirds in
2002/03 to 46 seabirds in 2003/04 and this was attributable to the more
effective use of mitigation measures. Injury and delayed mortality caused by
the ingestion of offal, by-catch and used bait containing hooks (and to a
lesser degree, from secondary hookings) can not be estimated and is a
significant cause for concern.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
