Based on a sample of literature data from the WOS and CNKI databases spanning 2000–2024， the study employs bibliometric methods and the visualization function of Citespace software to systematically review the characteristics and hotspots of fisheries research through annual distribution of publications， keyword co-occurrence， and burst word detection， adopting the Four dimensional perspective of "high-efficiency production–low-carbon green–high-quality–industrial resilience." The findings indicate： （1） From an overall long-term perspective， global fisheries research shows an upward trend， with steady growth in publications in both WOS and CNKI； （2） In terms of WOS publications， China's burst intensity reached 397.80， emerging in 2022 and persisting to the present， though its intermediary centrality remains weak； （3） Domestic fisheries research has formed a research system led by the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences， with Shanghai Ocean University and Ocean University of China as the dominant institution. The study reveals： （1） Influenced by international dynamics such as geopolitics and trade disputes， social science-based fisheries research has experienced rapid decline， exhibiting distinct "depression" and "transformation and reshaping" characteristics； （2） Whether in natural or social sciences， China's fisheries research is gaining increasing global influence， yet its intermediary centrality remains relatively low； （3） Due to the "peculiar" differences in China's fisheries industrial structure， domestic fisheries research places greater emphasis on economic risk resilience and recovery capacity within the industry； （4） Focusing on the high-quality development of global fisheries， existing research has overlooked the multifaceted attention to risks affecting aquatic product quality and safety.
