RESUMO:

Professional artisanal fishing is an activity with notable economic importance for coastal and riverside communities, due to the fact that it is the main source of employment and income for these communities. In this type of fishing, there is a subcategory called "isqueiros", which are fishermen who specialize in catching live bait, with the purpose of being used to capture fish of higher economic value. In this sense, it aimed to: Identify the dynamics of the collection and use of live bait in the North Pantanal, identifying its social, economic and environmental aspects; Report the particularities of the activity of collecting live bait, through periods of experience in the camps of these actors; and to verify the use of termites as baits for to capture of live baits in the North Pantanal. For this, a survey was carried out with the bait catchers of the North Pantanal, using the snowball sampling methodology, application of semi-structured questionnaires and of living in the camps. In all, 16 catchers were interviewed – 15 men and one woman, all residents of Cáceres-MT. The baits most collected by these fishermen are the tuviras and camboatás, which are sold in the region of the municipality in the fishing tourism sector. For its capture, the jequi and canvas are used as fishing instruments. In addition, it was found that the bait catchers perform their activities minimally in pairs, due to the dangers arising from this activity. Still, it was verified that the capture of live baits by such traps is done by the use of termite species and arboreal termites, which are collected along the river. The collection of these termites has even caused conflicts related to areas of use in the Pantanal region. Finally, there is a high demand for the activity of collecting bait in the region, in which activity has been growing in recent years, mainly due to the increase in demand by the tourist sector. Furthermore, due to the preference for tuvira as live bait, this points to a potential environmental imbalance, which in the medium term may compromise the economic activity in question.
