Abstract Apart from increasing the swept area of the trawls, the importance of bridles as a
herding device based on fish behaviour is discussed. The results of 10, 20 and 30 m
bridles when rigged with a 15m bulged belly trawl in combination with 114x 57 cm flat
rectangular otter boards are presented. The net with 20m bridle landed better
catches.
