The new trawl is being developed to replace the existing gear (GOV trawl) which has been used for the International Bottom Trawl Survey (IBTS) since 1998. The survey started from Aberdeen on 28th November and has been undertaken on fishing grounds in the Moray Firth area. The first half of the survey concentrated on understanding and comparing the fish catching performance of two new demersal trawls developed in Scotland and Ireland. So far 13 sets of alternate paired fishing hauls have been completed along with a number of gear geometry hauls using acoustic net monitoring sensors at differing depths and on both soft and firm substrates.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.gov.scot\/marine-scotland\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2019\/12\/BlogScotia01.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10541 aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/blogs.gov.scot\/marine-scotland\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2019\/12\/BlogScotia01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.gov.scot\/marine-scotland\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2019\/12\/BlogScotia01.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blogs.gov.scot\/marine-scotland\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2019\/12\/BlogScotia01-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.gov.scot\/marine-scotland\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2019\/12\/BlogScotia01-560x420.jpg 560w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/480;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The second phase of the trials will concentrate on comparing the catching performance of the new Scottish trawl against the GOV trawl currently used for Scottish bottom trawl surveys.
