Multi-vessel project to compare catch rates and sizes of Atlantic cod captured in Norwegian and Newfoundland cod pots.
Tests were conducted onboard three similar vessels, primarily used for lobster pot fishing, each approx. 13 m, 260kW, equipped with a pot hauler and a boom. Open transoms simplified setting of pots.
