Interesting to bring fish on board with water still swimming and targeting catch size more specifically

It is a fantastic innovation for the trawl fishery but i think it will only be used on super ships.
I doubt the average small trawler like we have here will be able to use that type of net.

Saw this the other night myself. Great idea even if it is only used by a select group of vessels. Those bloody kiwis have done it again:o Ben
