Survey : HUXL/30/1904 (part of CEFAS Historic surveys)

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the CEFAS Historic surveys;

Station and biological data collected during research surveys carried out by 
Cefas (formerly Directorate of Fisheries) in seas around the UK, mostly in the 
North Sea, since 1902. The survey hauls are not laid out systematically as a 
grid, as in current International Bottom Trawl Surveys (IBTS) and are widely 
distributed over (especially) southern and central North Sea areas. Gears and 
protocols were not standardised throughout, due to the long term nature of the 
series. Surveys took place in each season. Data are lacking for the periods of 
both World Wars. In some periods (e.g. the early 1900s), all species caught 
were recorded, whereas in other periods (e.g. 1920s-30s), only the key 
commercial species (e.g., Plaice, Sole and Cod) were recorded systematically. 
Note that some surveys targeted particular species (notably Plaice).

Survey took place between 08/04/1904 and 15/04/1904 on Huxley

Equipment used during this survey :


-   Lowestoft smack beam trawl 43ft 13.1m

Survey operations were undertaken on 11 stations

Reduce Whiting By-Catch in the SW Trawl Squid & Cuttlefish Fishery 2016/17 - Fisheries Science Partnership

Ten days of sea trials comprising 21 tows were successfully completed on board 
the commercial fishing vessel *‘Sue Ellen’* (BM211) in Lyme Bay in January 
2017 allowing comparison of the catches in a modified box trawl fitted with a 
four-panel extension and cod end with those of a standard two-panel box trawl. 
The aim of this study was to try and reduce the catch of unwanted whiting 
without loss of squid or cuttlefish. The cuttlefish season had finished for 
the inshore trawlers at the time of this study, so the emphasis was on 
retaining squid.

Survey : EHOLT/03/1960 (part of Historic Arctic Survey Series)

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the Historic Arctic Survey 
Series;

*Gadus morhua* (Atlantic Cod) stocks in the Barents Sea are currently at 
levels not seen since the 1950s. Causes for the population increase last 
century, and understanding of whether such large numbers will be maintained in 
the future, are unclear. To explore this, we digitised and interrogated 
historical cod catch and diet datasets from the Barents Sea. Data includes 
temporal and spatial information, cod catch data and length distributions, and 
hydrographic data.
