Journal of the Fisheries Society of Japan No.151 Okinawa Prefecture Sakishima Fisheries Survey

Okinawa Prefecture Sakishima Fisheries Survey
Mori Fusajiro, Fisheries Society of Japan

In both September and October last year, I was assigned to conduct a survey on fisheries in Sakishima, Okinawa Prefecture. The locations were the islands of Iriomote, Ishigaki, Hatoma, Taketomi, Kuroshima and Aragusuku in the Sakishima Islands. I achieved this sometimes by walking along the coast, sometimes by cruising the coastal waters by boat. As for islands like Hateruma, Yonaguni and Kuba (uninhabited islands also called Kakusenjima [Senkaku Islands]), unfortunately no shipping service could be obtained. I regret that in the end I was not able to travel there.
