Relative efficiency of two bottom trawls in catching juvenile and commercial sized flatfish
The relative efficiencies of a No. 36 Yankee shrimp trawl and a No. 41.5 Yankee otter trawl in catching three species of flatfishes (witch flounder, American plaice and Greenland halibut) were compared from data collected during research-vessel surveys of the northeastern Gulf of St. Lawrence.
