Abstract Experiments were carried out to standardise the length of bridles in a 32 m large
mesh demersal trawl and a 25 m high opening demersal trawl. Based on the comparative
catch rates obtained, double bridles of 30 m length was adjudged a better choice
for a 25 m high opening trawl whereas, 20 m bridles were found to improve the
performance of 32 m large mesh trawl.
