To collect field data on the numbers of elasmobranchs of conservation interest
(porbeagle, common skate and spurdog) taken as by-catch in offshore gillnet
fisheries and their survivability (i.e. health prior to discarding).

The primary aim of this project was to collect field data on the numbers of
elasmobranchs of both commercial and conservation interest (porbeagle *Lamna
nasus* , common skate *Dipturus batis* ‘complex’ and spurdog *Squalus
acanthias* ) taken as bycatch in commercial net (gill, trammel and tangle)
fisheries off Cornwall (ICES Division VIIe-h), and their survivability (health
condition prior to discarding). Two commercial netters (FV “Charisma” and FV
“Govenek of Ladram”) were chartered to undertake field studies between August
2011 and March 2012.
