Summary:
The study tested the use of a horizontally divided codend with small square mesh (40mm) and a simple frame to stimulate fish to swim into the upper compartment of a separator trawl. The majority of fish were separated successfully from Nephrops norvegicus, but fish preference for both trawl compartments was uniform. Additionally, separation efficiency was lower for small roundfish and flatfish.
