    • New codend designs to improve the size selectivity of fyke net for narrow-clawed crayfish (Pontastacus leptodactylus) 

      Cilbiz, Mehmet; Aydin, Celalettin; Herrmann, Bent (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-23)
      The narrow-clawed crayfish (Pontastacus leptodactylus) is one of the most ecologically and economically important freshwater species in Turkey. However, the harvest of this species has declined from 7937 t in 1984 to 696 t in 2019. One of primary reasons for this decrease in stock is the use of fishing gears with poor size selectivity. In this study, new codend designs were investigated to improve ...

    • The effect of grid size on catch efficiency and by-catch in the demersal trawl fishery for Norway pout (Trisopterus esmarkii) 

      Brinkhof, Jesse; Grimaldo Vela, Eduardo Enrique; Herrmann, Bent; Pettersen, Hermann (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-05)
      Norway pout (Trisopterus esmarkii) is caught with large trawls with small meshed codends, inevitably causing the fishery to have large by-catch issues. To reduce the amount of by-catch, a rigid sorting grid was made compulsory in 2010. However, there is still a severe by-catch issue, as well as the loss of target species because of the grid. A possible cause might be clogging of the grid, which could ...
