What We Know and What We Should Know About Mollusc Fisheries and Aquacultures in the Wadden Sea

Abstract

"At present, large-scale fishery in the Wadden Sea focuses on shrimp and shellfish, i.e. mussels and cockles. Small-scale fisheries exist for several species of fish, e.g. ell, smelt, and flatfish, and worms used for bait. This review paper focuses on the shellfish fisheries, including the culture of mussels."
