The fisheries control is a sovereign task of an agricultural authority. It extends to both coastal and inland waters . In many countries, supervision includes compliance with fishing quotas for fish, crabs and mussels, as well as compliance with the fishing grounds where they are fished. The standard of supervision is also the control of the minimum mesh size of the nets as well as the fight against illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. Monitoring takes place with watercraft and / or aircraft.

Europe

The European Fisheries Control Agency (EFCA), based in Vigo, Spain , has existed at EU level since 2005 .

Germany

In Germany, fishing supervision at sea (outside the 12 nautical mile zone ) is the task of the coast guard and the agricultural authorities of the neighboring federal states of Lower Saxony, Schleswig-Holstein and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania within the 12 nm limit. In inland waters, including those of the federal government, the federal states are responsible. A large number of federal and Union law must be monitored at the federal level. The German fishing fleet alone consists of 1,674 vessels. Many federal states' fisheries control authorities maintain their own fleets; the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, for example, eight boats as well as small boats for the bay and lagoon .
