dc.description.abstract | A prototype shrimp-fish separator to be installed between the body
and codend of a shrimp trawl was designed and constructed. The
separator uses large square meshes to provide an escape path for fish,
while funnels constructed of small mesh webbing keep the shrimp away
from the big meshes and act as leading panels to guide the fish out of
the trawl. A prototype was installed in the cut away after parts of a
shrimp trawl, which was then mounted on an oval steel frame and towed
just below the surface so that necessary adjustments could be identified
and tested. After a satisfactory design had been developed, fishing
trials were carried out in May, 1984, and further modifications to
improve the separating efficiency were made. Preliminary analysis of
this data shows that up to 61% of haddock less than 39 cm escaped, and
up to 30% of cod less than 42 cm. Visual observations of a similar
separating section were carried out with a remotely controlled
underwater TV vehicle, and these are described. | no_NO |
