Abstract

This Resolution regulates some fishing methods and fishing gear such as the use of netting for sardines (lux) and the fixed netting code. It also determines the fishing area and forbids the use of fishing gear from a distance of less than 500 m from a beach or a bay (except for “foot- fishing”). The Resolution allows the use of gun fishing without the use of diving machines.
