Abstract:
A study of total fish landing by trawl nets was conducted in the LKIM
Chendering fish port. From the research of this project, we can note the several
objectives. Those are, to determine the fish abundance and to determine the fish species
that been caught by the trawl using the trawl net in Terengganu sea water. All the
information and the data got from officers at the port. 20 of respondents were chosen
randomly to answer the survey form. This survey was to collect the information related
to the study. Many problems were faced during the activities. The fishermen in port not
allowed follow them in boat during the catch because of safety. To encounter and
minimize the problems, some actions were taken. Collect the data that available there
without follow the fishermen going out to the sea. All the collected data, comparisons
and the result expressed in description like percentage, average, histogram, graph, chart
and so on. Although trawl net is the most efficient fish vessel in Malaysia, but overall
comparison shows that purse seine give the higher fish landing than trawl net. From the
result of the survey, we know that trawl net is one of the dynamic vessels and one of the
important vessels in Terengganu. There is much kind of fish species that been caught by
the trawl net compare to the other fish vessel.
