English abstract Artisanal spring/summer fish-trapping around Santa Catarina Island is described from 282 landings monitored in three localities (Praia dos Ingleses, Barra da Lagoa and Pântano do Sul) between November and March of 2000 and 2001. Despite the high number of species caught, the fishery was based on only three species: the cutlassfish (Trichiurus lepturus), the squid (Loligo plei) and the blue runner (Caranx crysos). The fishery was characterized by few traps operating in close proximity to the fishing communities, short trips, few fishermen engaged in the fishery and highly variable yields. The composition of the catches appeared to be highly influenced by the abundance of the cutlassfish, whereas wind conditions had no direct effect on the landings
Portuguese abstract A pesca artesanal com cerco flutuante no entorno da Ilha de Santa Catarina é descrita a partir de 282 desembarques monitorados nas localidades de Praia dos Ingleses, Barra da Lagoa e Pântano do Sul nos períodos de primavera e verão de 2000 e 2001 (Novembro−Março). Apesar do grande número de espécies capturadas, a pescaria é sustentada por apenas três espécies, a saber: o peixe-espada (Trichiurus lepturus), a lula (Loligo plei) e o “manezinho” (). A pescaria caracterizou-se pelo uso de poucos aparelhos operando nas cercanias das comunidades, viagens curtas, poucos pescadores envolvidos na atividade e rendimentos altamente variáveis. A composição das capturas parece ser fortemente influenciada pela abundância do peixe-espada. As condições de vento não afetaram diretamente os desembarques
