Evaluating off-bottom sweeps of a U.S. West Coast groundfish bottom trawl: Effects on catch efficiency and seafloor interactions
Lomeli, Mark J. M.; Wakefield, W. Waldo; Herrmann, Bent (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-05)In the U.S. West Coast groundfish bottom trawl fishery, lengthy sweeps (>85 m) that maintain seafloor contact are traditionally used. While these sweeps are effective at herding groundfishes, their bottom tending characteristics ... -
Illuminating the Headrope of a Selective Flatfish Trawl: Effect on Catches of Groundfishes including Pacific Halibut
Lomeli, Mark J. M.; Wakefield, W. Waldo; Herrmann, Bent (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-03-30)This study evaluated how illuminating the headrope of a selective flatfish trawl can affect catches of groundfishes, including Pacific Halibut Hippoglossus stenolepis, in the U.S. West Coast limited‐entry (LE) groundfish ... -
The Efficacy of Illumination to Reduce Bycatch of Eulachon and Groundfishes Before Trawl Capture in the Eastern North Pacific Ocean Shrimp Fishery
Lomeli, Mark J. M.; Groth, Scott D.; Blume, Matthew; Herrmann, Bent; Wakefield, W. Waldo (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-05-24)This study examined the extent that eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus) and groundfishes escape trawl entrainment in response to artificial illumination along an ocean shrimp (Pandalus jordani) trawl fishing line. Using a ... -
Use of artificial illumination to reduce Pacific halibut bycatch in a U.S. West Coast groundfish Bottom trawl
Lomeli, Mark J. M.; Wakefield, W. Waldo; Herrmann, Bent; Dykstra, Claude L.; Simeon, Anna; Rudy, Dana M.; Planas, Josep V. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-01)In the U.S. West Coast groundfish bottom trawl fishery, Pacific halibut (Hippoglossus stenolepis) bycatch can impact some fishers’ ability to fully utilize their quota shares of groundfishes.
