Scottish Marine and Freshwater Science Volume 6 Number 3: Effects of Codend Mesh Size and Twine Number on Nephrops Selectivity: Report of Fishing Industry Science Alliance (FISA) Project 03/13

A set of trials were conducted in the West Coast to examine the selectivity of nephrops (Nephrops norvegicus) with regards to codends of differing mesh sizes and construction.
