Describes the physical characteristics and size composition of the major Pasandig catch of shrimp (Metapenaeus dalli), and anchovy (Stolephorus bataviensis), incidental catch of fin fish and crustacean, and plankton. The limited catch data obtained suggest that the present exploitation of M. dalli is within the level of biological overfishing. A continuing study on the shrimp annual catch of Pasandig is needed to support a flexible strategy for conserving this resource.
