The Fishing Forums are institutional arrangements that arise from a grassroots organization and are inserted in a decentralized management perspective, understood as shared management. In Rio Grande do Sul, there are some initiatives management systems shared fishing from Forum Fisheries Forum and the North Coast of the largest spaces management organization. This article aims to analyze the management of Forum Fishing the North Coast of Rio Grande do Sul, with emphasis on their ability to articulate the issues and routing of professional fishing craft in lagoon environments, estuarine and marine. The methodology consisted of a case study, based on a qualitative approach and data analysis was performed based on content analysis. We carried out action research, which data collection occurred in two areas of analysis, general meetings of the Forum Fisheries in 2011 and 2012, and in workshops sponsored with artisanal fishermen, in order to identify the problems and demands of fishing craft. The issues discussed in three meetings were organized around the themes: fishing in lagoons and estuarine environments (environmental issues, surveillance, environmental legislation, land conflicts and other categories of users) and sea (territorial conflicts and environmental issues) and general issues of traditional fishermen (bureaucracy for documentation and access to programs and artisanal fisheries enhancement). The professional artisanal fisheries issues identified within the meetings were in line with the commonly debated topics in space and forwarded Forum Fishing the North Coast. Among the issues identified in meetings with fishermen, on which there is already a linkage and referral within the Forum, are: a) the environmental situation of the gates and the oil spill, b) monitoring and legislation, training of tax, revision of technical criteria for fishery management and planning of the waterfront c) of bureaucratic documentation for clarification on professional fishing craft and revision of agreements with municipalities about fishing in the summer. With the emergence Forum Fishing the North Coast created the possibility of a direct dialogue with government entities and the routing of demands identified by the fishing communities. However, this forum despite being considered the more organized compared to the others that exist in Rio Grande do Sul, is still ongoing process of structuring, resulting in failure during the process. We conclude that the Forum Fishing the North Coast of Rio Grande do Sul is an area of shared management implementation, which was encouraged by the government and by the appropriate representation of fishermen, having the ability to articulate the demands of fishermen environments lagustres, estuarine and marine region of the North Coast and refer to the relevant bodies. However, demands for being associated with management of common resources and shared territories, which are being appropriated by segments of society backed by the logic of private property, they are fastened by institutional arrangements involved in shared management and is currently in dispute in society.
