Abstract/Notes	Tuna fishing is a vital source of food, employment and export in both Solomon Islands and Maldives. Most of the tuna is caught using the traditional pole and line method, a technique that relies on batfish—small fish which are thrown live into the sea to attract tuna schools within range of the boat.
