Abstract: Available literature concerning purse seine fisheries was reviewed. Literature was selected for this report if 1) it presented information that provided insight into the history and long-term trends in a fishery and 2) it presented information on purse seines unique to a fishery. Information found in the reviewed literature revealed that purse seines are a highly efficient fishing gear and without adequate regulation are potentially damaging to targeted fish populations.
