Abstract:
A census of fish landing sites and active boat units was carried out in the Ugandan part of Lake Albert from 29/01–26/02/1991. This report gives an historical overview of earlier Frame Surveys (FS) and the objectives of the present one and describes the design of FS questionnaires, the planning and the subsequent implementation of the FS. Results of the census and the Catch Assessment Survey (CAS) design for Lake Albert based on the frame information are presented. Recommendations based on these preliminary results are made.
