Annual catch exceeds two million tonnes, or one half of the Russian Far East total.

The catches of recreational fishermen may exceed the catches of professionals, with studies showing Queensland had over twice the amount of fish taken by anglers in 2000.

In 1980, the catch exceeded 54,000 animals, but in 1981 fell to about 10,000, with harbour porpoises rather than dolphins comprising most of the catch.

Annual catch of kapenta in the Cahora Bassa dam in 2003 exceeded 10,000 tonnes.

In 1926-29 the annual catch exceeded a million pounds, but stocks declined from 1931 and little was fished from Lake Winnipeg after 1938.

The crevalle jack is a popular and highly regarded gamefish throughout its range, with the recreational catch of the species often exceeding commercial catches.

The catch exceeded the then-previous record of three pounds, six ounces made on the same size tippet back in 1986.

Under this framework, a fishery is considered to be overfished when catches exceed maximum economic yield where resource rent is at its maximum.

Aguilar suggests the total yearly catch may not have exceeded "some dozens, possibly reaching one hundred or thereabouts."

Under the fisheries Quota Management System, deemed values are the costs to commercial fishers whose catch of quota stocks exceed their annual annual entitlement.
