Injury Rates of Red King Crab, Paralithodes camtschaticus, Passing Under Bottom-trawl Footropes

The rate of injuries sustained by red king crab, Paralithodes camtschaticus, during passage under several types of bottom trawl footropes was examined using a modified bottom trawl in Bristol Bay, Alaska. Crabs were recaptured and examined for injuries after passing under each of three trawl footrop...
