Abstract
  • Economic performance of different fleet segments varies considerably from year to year, with some segments experiencing increased profitability while others experience decreased profitability. This variation is generally considered to be a consequence of the stochasticity in the industry. However, there is growing evidence that fisheries may not be as stochastic as generally thought. In this paper, a spatial bioeconomic model is developed of a multi-species multi-gear fishery, which assumes individual profit maximising behaviour. It is shown that inter-annual variations in profits are a function of the spatial behaviour of the fishers, which tends to vary chaotically over time.
