    Bengkalis coastal and offshore seas are well known for high fishing productivity. Fisheries sector had a significant contribution to regional economy, thus the development of fisheries become important for local government policy to increase fishermen welfare. However, it was indicated that the Bengkalis fishing production showed a decreasing trend which suggested an overfishing status. The present research aimed to analyze the fisheries resources state in Bengkalis Regency, and performed a Shift Share (SS) Analysis as well as Location Quotient (LQ) Analysis, to determine the trend of fisheries sector to Bengkalis economy. Furthermore, Bioeconomic Analysis and Institutional Analysis were also carried out to describe the institutional aspect. Apparently, Parang-parang (Chirocentrus dorab) have been over exploited. Bioeconomic analysis revealed that exploitation rate of Parang-parang reached 263%. Natural growth level of Parang-parang was calculated of 1,142, capture capacity coefficient was 0,0000002721 and carrying capacity coefficient was 168.882,96. Bioeconomic analysis result of Kurau (Eleutheronema tetradactylum) was overfishing 33,42%. Natural growth level of Kurau was 0,614, capture capacity coefficient was 0,00000020 and carrying capacity coefficient was 28.820. Fisheries management policy of this economic resources had better used MEY regime. Based on LQ and SS analysis, it appeared that fisheries sector had high effects to regional economic so that fisheries development provide significantly contribution to public welfare opportunity. The degradation of marine ecosystem and high exploitation (overfishing) become a serious problem. The role of social culture (local wisdom) should be revitalized. Stakeholders involved in fisheries development policy were fiseheries office, Bengkalis Parliament, Forestry Departement and Bengkalis Environmental Agency.
