Abstract
Amongthe two trawl designsemployed for two-boat bottom trawling l2.50m dual purpose trawl caught
33.22% more fish than l2.50m large mesh high opening trawl. The increase in the average catch/h of fish is
60.53% in dual purpose trawl due to attachment of false head rope. The influence of trawling speed of 2-4 knots,
on the specieswise catch composition of fish obtained during experimental two~boat bottom and midwater
trawling is discussed
