The closed fishing season refers to the period when the government prohibits or restricts the fishing of marine animals, which is a common system for the protection of fish resources in all countries of the world.
Its purpose is to protect the normal growth or reproduction of aquatic organisms and ensure the sustainable recovery and development of fish resources. According to the relevant laws and regulations of our country, the fishing ban period is stipulated by the fishery administrative department of the people's government at or above the county level.
Fishing ban refers to the period when fishing is prohibited to protect fishery resources. Fishing is usually prohibited for a certain period of time in fishery waters such as fish spawning grounds, feeding grounds, wintering grounds and important migration routes through national or local legislation and international fishery agreements. Similar to the function of no-fishing area. In China, the provisions of closed fishing period and closed fishing area are often used at the same time, that is, fishing is prohibited in designated waters for a certain period of time. For example, the Chinese government stipulates that April 1 day to July 3 1 day is the closed fishing period for large yellow croaker and large yellow croaker; In the peak period of juvenile fish in China's coastal areas, the fishing ban on fixed nets should be implemented for not less than two months. During the breeding period or wintering period of fish in inland waters, the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government or their fishery administrative departments shall also stipulate fishing bans, which can be roughly divided into two types: spring fishing bans and winter fishing bans.
Implementing the regulation of closed fishing season is also one of the important measures to increase fishery resources. It is also beneficial to improve the quality of aquatic products and increase the output value of fisheries to prohibit fishing during a certain period of juvenile growth.
