Some stakeholders expressed concern that the rockhopper sweep introduced with this gear was not suitable for the efficient capture of flatfish and could therefore bias survey estimates. To address this question, a paired trawl experiment was conducted during the fall of 2009 and the spring and fall of 2010 aboard three chartered fishing vessels, the Mary K, the Moragh K, and the Endurance. The new standard survey trawl with rockhopper sweep was compared with an identical net with a 3” cookie sweep using paired tows between 2 vessels. Results in general showed significantly more flatfish caught with the cookie sweep, although differences in size distributions between the two sweeps were negligible in most cases. To compare catchability of rockhopper and cookie sweeps on the NEFSC standard bottom trawl survey net and allow more direct comparability between NEFSC bottom trawl survey and NEAMAP bottom trawl survey. completed Foley, Catherine 166 Water Street Woods Hole MA 02543 catherine.foley@noaa.gov pointOfContact Foley, Catherine 166 Water Street Woods Hole MA 02543 catherine.foley@noaa.gov custodian asNeeded 3" cookie sweep cooperative research flatfish paired trawl rock hopper sweep size distribution theme 2009 2010 temporal Georges Bank Gulf of Maine Southern New England place benthic demersal stratum DOC/NOAA/NMFS/NEFSC > Northeast Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
