Catch share is a term used for fishery management systems that dedicate a secure privilege to harvest a specific area or percentage of a fishery’s total allowable catch to individuals, communities or associations. Types of programs that are considered catch shares include, but are not limited to, individual transferable quota (ITQs), individual fishing quota (IFQs), territorial use rights fisheries (TURFs), limited access privileges (LAPs), sectors, and dedicated access privileges (DAPs). Catch shares are different from traditional management as catch shares provide long-term secure privileges to participants, which has been credited as providing an incentive for efficient, sustainable use of fish stocks.
The term “catch share” has been coined recently, but similar management systems providing secure and exclusive access to fishery resources have existed much longer. Community-based management in Japan's near shore fisheries began in feudal times, while modern individually-allocated catch share programs were first implemented by the state of Wisconsin in the early 1970s for important fish stocks in the Great Lakes. Additionally, Iceland and the Netherlands implemented catch shares for important stocks in the late 1970s.
