| Abstract | Comparative studies with a new 17 m parallel twin- body trawl and a 17 m bulged belly trawl conducted off Cochin during 1974-'77 are reported. The parallel twin-body trawl showed an increase of 28% in catch over that of bulged belly with a break up of 39.9% and 23.1 % for prawns and fishes respectively. The increase in catch is attributed 1D the extra wide mouth opening(26.6 %) of the parallel twin-body trawl.Parallel twin-body trawl had 8.96% lesser resistance which resulted in lower utilization of horse power |
