Marine reserve benefits and recreational fishing yields: the winners and the losers

M. Kayal, M. Cigala, E. Cambra, N. Soulat, M. Mercader, A. Lebras, P. Ivanoff, L. Sebesi, A. Lassus-Debat, V. Hartmann, M. Bradtke, P. Lenfant, C. Jabouin, J. Dubreuil, D. Pelletier, , M. Verdoit-Jarraya

The paper evaluates the long-term effects of a marine reserve on fishing yields, finding increased catch abundance and weight for offshore fishermen but declining yields for onshore fishermen.
