| Abstract | ||
| Jatigede Reservoir utilization is focused as an infrastructure for capture fisheries. The relatively young age of the reservoir means that there is a lack specific information regarding the development of fishing activities in the Jatigede Reservoir. Therefore, a research to provide a specific picture of capture fisheries activities through aspects of social typology of fishermen, technical fishing operations, fishing seasons, and catch composition in the Jatigede Reservoir is needed. The research was carried out during August-December 2021 by conducting interviews and direct observations in the field. The research results showed that the majority of fishermen in the Jatigede Reservoir are full-time fishermen with gillnet fishing gear, whose ownership status is private, and are native fishermen. Other types of fishing gear used by fishermen include handlines, cast nets, lift nets and traps with fishing activities dominated in the Cimanuk River Basin. The fishing season has an effect on the smaller quantity of catch, with the composition of the catch consisting of the Nile tilapia, mozambique tilapia, freshwater lobster and paray fish. The existing potential must be maintained and monitored so that fishing activities can be carried out sustainably. | ||
