title: POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES OF INCREASING THE COMMERCIAL SIZE OF RED MULLET IN THE AZOV AND BLACK SEA FISHERY BASIN UP TO 10 CM
abstract: The current practice of regulation and management of red mullet Mullus barbatus L. fishery in the Black and Azov Seas has been considered. The data on catch composition and Russian fishing intensity in 2016–2020 are presented, as well as the data on some specific features of regulating measures — in particular, regarding limitation of by-catch of the fish that has yet to reach its commercial size.
