Abstract
The aims of this study are to analyse the extent and distribution of boat and shore based fishing along the Cape Peninsula for the purpose of designing a comprehensive fisheries monitoring program. The focus of this study is the non-quota regulated fisheries, which have thus far eluded monitoring attempts. A fishery monitoring program should be able to detect biologically significant shifts in resource abundance in the Marine Protected Areas and to provide data that are relevant to stock assessment models. Personnel and cost implications of the monitoring program will be estimated.
