There has been an increasing emphasis on reducing the environmental impacts of penaeid trawls by modifying their anterior sections.In one Australian estuary,this approach has culminated in a new generic trawl comprisi...
Tickler chains are simple additions to the ground gears of benthic trawls that can improve the catches of some target species,albeit with considerable variability.The purpose of this study was to decipher some of the ...
