Abstract

A study was undertaken to standardize the size of cod-end in trawls. Observations were made with cod-ends of 3 different lengths. The comparative catch efficiency of individual cod-ends when attached to a 32 m fish trawl was assessed. The results showed that 6 m cod-end was superior to the other two cod-ends (4 m and 8 m) with respect to the landings of quality fish.
