Purse seine is the most used fishing gear by traditional fishermen in Aceh. The maximum yield of the fishing gear is highly influenced by deployment time as soon as they spot a school of fish. Thus timing (setting and hauling) plays major roles to estimate the maximum yield. Because of its large size (e.g., 1,200 m in length and 80 m in depth) and traditional fishermen in Aceh use their bare hands to pull the net, it will give an impact to the efficiency of each fishing trip. The objective of the study is to examine fish catches based on setting and hauling duration. This research and data collection was done in December 2011 with two types of boats that use purse seine as their fishing gear, i.e. day boat and night boat. Purposive sampling method and statistical analysis is used to analyze the data. The results showed that duration of setting and hauling was statistically significant in catching production (p < 0.05). The average duration of setting is about 4′33″ to 6′.48″ and average duration of hauling is about 132′23″-134′04″, meanwhile the average of fish catches is about 1.100-1.900 kg.
