  abstract = {{T}he failure to achieve fisheries management objectives has been broadly discussed in international meetings. {M}easuring the effects of fishery regulations is difficult due to the lack of detailed information. {T}he yellowfin tuna fishery in the eastern {P}acific {O}cean offers an opportunity to evaluate the fishers' responses to temporal regulations. {W}e used data from observers on-board {M}exican purse-seine fleet, which is the main fleet fishing on dolphin-associated tuna schools. {I}n 2002, the {I}nter-{A}merican {T}ropical {T}una {C}ommission implemented a closed season to reduce fishing effort for this fishery. {F}or the period 1992-2008, we analysed three fishery indicators using generalized estimating equations to evaluate the fishers' response to the closure. {W}e found that purse-seiners decreased their time spent in port, increased their fishing sets, and maintained their proportion of successful fishing sets. {O}ur results highlight the relevance of accounting for the fisher behaviour to understand fisheries dynamics when establishing management regulations.},
