Synopsis (short abstract) This protocol is the result of two training courses which were conducted in Egypt in November 2010 in Port Said and in June 2012 in Alexandria. A pilot survey first on Catch and Effort data which was then followed by biological sampling has been started in Egypt with the Support of the EastMed project. The aim of the protocol is to assist the data collectors both in the field and in the laboratories to conduct sampling during the pilot phase. The first part of this document contains guidelines on the routine collection of catch and effort data from the ports of Alexandria, Damiette, Kafr-El-Sheikh, Madiaa and Port Said. The second part of the document describes guidelines for the collection of biological data including length, weight, sex, sexual maturity, gonad weight and hard structures for age reading. It also includes guidelines on sampling frequencies and number of samples to be collected for catch, effort and biological data. The protocol will also serve as a basis if Egypt intends to pursue a routine data collection system for the collection of fisheries data for stock assessment purposes.
