Lineage

The investigation was carried out by comparing the catches of bass in gillnets of mesh size 90, 100, 108 and 120 mm deployed simultaneously on fishing grounds in the southern North Sea. The work was carried out during October and November 2008, with the aid of skipper Nigel Stead and crew of the Grimsby registered fishing vessel *Rachel S. * Three replicate trials were conducted and all three produced consistent and comparable results.
