This data set provides summaries of fishing activity for UK commercial fishing vessels landing into the UK and abroad as well as foreign registered commercial fishing vessels landing into the UK, that are deemed to have been fishing within a specified calendar year. These summaries have been aggregated by month of landing, the port of landing, the length group of the vessel and the gear group used. For each aggregation level the quantity (tonnes) of live weight fish landed, the actual landed weight (tonnes) and value (sterling) of live weight fish landed are given for specific species, with the remaining species combined into a composite group based on the species group they are classified to. The gear categories are comprised as follows; beam trawl; pelagic seine; demersal trawl and seine (includes all trawl gears except beam trawl) and all seine gears (except purse seine); dredges; drift and fixed nets; gears using hooks; other mobile gears; other passive gears; and pots and traps. More information on the exact nature of fishing gears can be found at: http://www.fao.org/fishery/topic/1617/en

dataset
Data on fishing activity are taken from the IFISH data system. This is a UK repository of key elements of the administrative data commercial fishermen are required to report under EU legislation to enable competent authorities to monitor and manage their activity. There are three key sources of data â?? the logbook of activity while at sea, the landing declaration recording the accurate weight of fish when landed, and sales notes created when the fish are first sold after landing. The first two of these are required from all fishermen operating vessels over 10 metres overall length, the sales notes information is required for sales by all licensed vessels irrespective of length. The data includes the species, weight and value of fish landed along with details of the vessel involved, where the fish was caught, and with what gear. These data are collected by the four fisheries administrations within the UK, checked and validated and collated into the IFISH repository holding full UK data on licensed commercial fishing activity. The finest available level of spatial resolution for activity data within IFISH is an ICES rectangle. Each rectangle represents an area of the sea that measures 0.5 degrees of latitude by 1 degree of longitude.
