Jérôme OLLIER on 01 Aug 22* Fish catch before and after covid curfews was evaluated in gear and reserve management. * Curfew regulation compliance was higher near the reserve than gear managed sites. * Catch rates and incomes were variable but displayed greatest increases adjacent the reserve. * Rates of changes after the curfew mostly followed the longer-term trends in catches. * Curfew accelerated long-term declines in CPUE in gear-restricted but not reserves fisheries.
