Radial Trawl
Designed to achieve a very large herding area with a towing resistance lower than that of conventional midwater trawls, thus allowing the vessel to achieve a greater scope.
Features
- Graduated mesh size in the front end allows for the greatest herding area per horsepower to be achieved.
- Extremely effective in shallow and mid-range depths.
- Constructed using high-grade nylon and polyethylene netting which allows for greater durability and strength.
- Very flexible fishing dimensions.
