Estuarine fishery |
artisanal (fishery) or small-scale: here we can include the condition prior to estuarine fishing at Lagoa dos Patos, when it was a profitable economic activity (REIS, 1992____________. An assessment of the exploitation of the White croaker Micropogonias furnieri (Pisces, Sciaenidae) by the artisanal and industrial fisheries in coastal waters of Southern Brazil. Tese (Doutorado em Filosofia) - University of East Anglia, Norwich, 1992., p. 26; 1993, p. 111) |

Full time dedication |
Dedication to estuarine fishing is oftentimes integral (REIS, 1992____________. An assessment of the exploitation of the White croaker Micropogonias furnieri (Pisces, Sciaenidae) by the artisanal and industrial fisheries in coastal waters of Southern Brazil. Tese (Doutorado em Filosofia) - University of East Anglia, Norwich, 1992., p. 29; 1993, p. 113) |

Isolation |
Torotama island is under geographic isolation condition (SANTOS, 2001SANTOS, I. O. Torotama: educação ambiental, cidadania e cultura afro-brasileira. Dissertação (Mestrado em Educação Ambiental) - Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação Ambiental, Fundação Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Rio Grande, 2001., p. 40). |

Professional formation, technological development, yield |
Lack of fishery schools for the formation of fishing professionals is a barrier to fishery’s technological development and to yield increase in this sector (LIMA, 1999LIMA, R. A decadência da pesca industrial no município de Rio Grande na década de 90. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Ciências Econômicas) - Departamento de Ciências Econômicas, Administrativas e Contábeis, Fundação Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Rio Grande, 1999., p. 08). |

War mentality |
The fact the government agency responsible for fisheries management is one of the institutions that make part of FPL helps to reduce the possibility of war mentality (REIS; DINCAO, 2000REIS, E. G.; D´INCAO, F. The present status of artisanal fisheries of extreme southern Brasil: an effort towards community-based management. Ocean & Coastal Management, [s.l.], v. 43, n. 7, p. 585-595, jul. 2000., p. 593). |

Competitive, market oriented |
...it is important to consider fishermen’s competitive and Market-oriented view of fishing; this is more realistic that to assume that fishing is a communal, cooperative and altruistic process (REIS, 1992____________. An assessment of the exploitation of the White croaker Micropogonias furnieri (Pisces, Sciaenidae) by the artisanal and industrial fisheries in coastal waters of Southern Brazil. Tese (Doutorado em Filosofia) - University of East Anglia, Norwich, 1992., p. 189). |

Predatory fishery, self-destruction, lack of awareness, stock reduction, illegal and destructive methods to the environment |
It is noticeable, by assessing predatory fishery, that fishermen have developed a self-destruction method, since they do not realize about their key participation in stocks’ reduction, due to the practice of illegal methods that destroy the fishery environment (LIMA, 1999LIMA, R. A decadência da pesca industrial no município de Rio Grande na década de 90. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Ciências Econômicas) - Departamento de Ciências Econômicas, Administrativas e Contábeis, Fundação Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Rio Grande, 1999., p. 75). |
| Predatory practices, extermination chamber. |
These practices are so predatory that within each 1,000 shrimp that try to reach the ocean, only 2 succeed, (...), so that it would not be too much stating that Lagoa do Patos is becoming a pink-shrimp extermination chamber (CABRAL, 1997CABRAL, C. A. R. A educação ambiental na pesca artesanal do camarão-rosa (Penaeus paulensis) em Rio Grande: análise de uma tentativa. Dissertação (Mestrado em Educação Ambiental) - Programa de Pós-graduação de Educação ambiental, Fundação Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Rio Grande, 1997., p. 90). |
| Broader view, respect relationship, solidarity to the medium |
It was decided to try to help them through courses and/or lectures (…) in order to make artisanal fishermen get a broader view that could help them put in place (…) a respect and solidarity relationship (CABRAL, 1997CABRAL, C. A. R. A educação ambiental na pesca artesanal do camarão-rosa (Penaeus paulensis) em Rio Grande: análise de uma tentativa. Dissertação (Mestrado em Educação Ambiental) - Programa de Pós-graduação de Educação ambiental, Fundação Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Rio Grande, 1997., p. 33). |

Low cultural level, lack of knowledge. |
...the user effective participation at the process in Patos Lagoon fisheries discussion is difficult because of the low cultural level of the fishermen community. Basic concepts about biology and species life cycles, economic and social aspects are unknown (REIS; DINCAO, 2000REIS, E. G.; D´INCAO, F. The present status of artisanal fisheries of extreme southern Brasil: an effort towards community-based management. Ocean & Coastal Management, [s.l.], v. 43, n. 7, p. 585-595, jul. 2000., p. 593). |
| Artisanal fishing without evolution, rooted in traditions. |
(...) the structuring features of artisanal fishery remain almost unchanged for decades, without any significant evolution in its structure. It has been showing little dynamics and deep rooting in traditional means, besides fearing all that is new (LILJA, 1999LILJA, L. R. P. Pesca artesanal gaúcha, do auge ao declínio. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Ciências Econômicas) - Departamento de Ciências Econômicas, Administrativas e Contábeis, Fundação Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Rio Grande, 1999., p. 74). |
| Preservation consciousness, deeper knowledge, preserving and taking care of its natural habitat. |
School has sought to develop Environmental Education projects, so that it can provide preservation awareness to residents, because their survival is intrinsically related to Lagoa do Patos. A better local knowledge makes fishermen preserve their own natural habitat (SANTOS, 2001SANTOS, I. O. Torotama: educação ambiental, cidadania e cultura afro-brasileira. Dissertação (Mestrado em Educação Ambiental) - Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação Ambiental, Fundação Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, Rio Grande, 2001., p. 39). |

Built from white element |
Fishermen are almost fully built from the white element. Black people (...) would have dedicated themselves to grazing, charqueadas and farming (MARQUES, 1980MARQUES, L. A. B. 1980. O pescador artesanal do sul. MEC: SEAC: FUNARTE: Instituto Nacional do Folclore, Rio de Janeiro (RJ), 75p., p. 14) |
