CEFAS22-30 Inshore Fishing Survey (Outer Thames)

Notice Description

The project will conduct two seasonal surveys (each of 7 days) using a standardised 2 or 3 m beam trawl (all survey gears will be supplied by Cefas) at fixed locations in the Outer Thames. The information to be collected will include catch rates and size distributions for commercial and non-commercial species (cod, whiting, thornback ray, shellfish etc) and biological parameters for sole and plaice.

The surveys will be conducted in late August/ early September. The vessel for each survey must be able to rig and deploy the Cefas survey gear (see Section 4.1.4). Embarkation and disembarkation will be from suitable local Outer Thames ports e.g. West Mersea (northern Outer Thames) and Whitstable (southern Outer Thames).
