Saving gear for otter trawl / author F.H.C. Taylor.Fs52-3/363E-PDF

"Trawling is an important and useful method of taking marine fish and for exploiting certain species seems to be the only method. It has the major disadvantage of destroying substantial quantities of small unsalable fish of both the species whose use depends entirely upon it and of other fish which are taken on different kinds of gear. To those interested in effective use of fish resources the destruction of unusable fish is a source of concern and several attempts have been made to develop methods of avoiding the waste which results from bringing on deck large quantities of small fish. The results of the more significant published investigations on the subject have been summarized and brought together in the following manuscript report in the hope that application of the general principles of effective "savings gear" to local conditions may be facilitated"--Foreword.
