Artisanal fishery at the Corumbau Marine Extractive Reserve (Bahia, Brazil): subsidies for local sustainable management
Extractive reserves (reservas extrativistas, RESEXs) are protected areas designed to preserve the livelihoods and culture of traditional populations, enabling sustainable use of resources. At the Corumbau RESEX, artisanal fisheries represent great potential for local socio-economic development. The current study aimed at characterizing the fishing activity at the Corumbau RESEX, using semi-structured interviews with 56 fishers and analyzing the data through descriptive statistics. The fishing frequency indicated by the fishers was one to three days a week. Speedboats are the primary transportation means involved in fishing, in which various fishing techniques are employed, with handline fishing as the most cited. The main targeted species in the fisheries were lane snapper (Lutjanus synagris), yellowtail snapper (Ocyurus chrysurus), and blue runner (Caranx crysos). Among the target species, there are the parrotfish species, which, despite being threatened, are allowed to be fished in the Corumbau RESEX due to the local management plan. Nearly 45% of those interviewed fish for parrotfish, with 60% living in the community of Cumuruxatiba, and 32% of the divers travel significant distances to reach the fishing spot, ranging from 5 to 18.5 nautical miles. The results presented in this paper can generate subsidies for the management of the RESEX and for future research.
