This report is the main deliverable of CAMAC phase I for the workpackage on fisheries. It synthetizes the information available regarding the main characteristics of the fisheries in the CAMAC area and their interactions with marine megafauna. Data were collected from scientific and grey literature, interviews of national fisheries departments, regional fishing management organizations (e.g., CRFM, WECAFC), NGOs, and an online survey. Accessibility to data was a major challenge of this work, as a consequence, the synthesis provided in the report should be considered as a first overview.
