This MCS Practitioners Introductory Guide has been developed by TMT in cooperation with the International MCS Network (IMCSN).
It is intended to be used as a training tool to introduce common international industrial fishing vessel
and gear types, towards building knowledge in personnel working in all agencies
(Fisheries, Port, Coast Guard and Navy, Maritime etc.) who may play an operational role
in fisheries monitoring control and surveillance (MCS), as well as for use by broader
interested stakeholders.
While this guide is a stand-alone tool focussed on pole and line fishing, it has been developed
as part of series of similar introductory guides on other major industrial fishing methods and related operations, as well as complementary material on fishing vessel inspection considerations.
All the guides are available for download:
