The results show that neritic tuna in Java Sea caught by purse seine, mini purse seine, drift gillnet, and encircling gill net. The annual catch and CPUE of neritic tuna are still fluctuating. This tuna neritic fishery condition was showed that has not been overfishing. Catch composition of purse seine and mini purse seine dominated by small pelagic seine while catch composition drifts gill net and encircling gill net dominated by neritic tuna. The fishing ground around west of Karimun island, while purse seine from west of Bawean, Masalembu and around Matasiri island. Fishing seasons are April to May and October to December.
