Effects of density dependent as well as independent dispersal modes between a harvested patch and a protected area on the maximum sustainable yield and population abundance are studied. Without dispersal, the Gordon-Schaefer harvesting model predicts that as the protected area increases, population abundance increases too but the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) decreases. This article shows that dispersal can change this prediction. For density independent balanced and fast dispersal, neither the MSY, nor population abundance depends on the protected area. For fast and unbalanced dispersal both the MSY and equilibrium population abundance are unimodal functions of the protected area size. For density dependent dispersal which is in direction of increasing fitness predictions depend on whether individuals react to mortality risk in harvested patch. When animals disregard harvesting risk, the results are similar to the case of density independent and balanced dispersal. When animals do consider harvesting risk, the results are similar to the case without dispersal. The models considered also show that dispersal reduces beneficial effect of protected areas, because population abundance is smaller when compared with no dispersal case
