The management of multispecies fisheries embraces not only the situation in which one type of gear takes more than one species of fish at a time but in the broader and more realistic sense, it essentially means management of the fisheries of a region. The objective of such management is to achieve some desired pattern of harvesting of living marine resources[,] and it thus follows that there are many considerations involved.
