Two new blue whiting trawls with very large meshes in the front part have
been tested with regard to towing resistance, operational qualities and
catching efficiency. The results confirm that the large mesh design is
quite suitable for blue whiting fishing to reduce towing power and/or
increase the trawl mouth opening. Large mesh traw~are already in commercial
use by blue whiting trawlers in Norway.
