Objective Locating the different stages of hake biology in the outflow of the Rhone river plume. Adapting fisheries techniques to catching the different stages of hake in the Gulf of Lions. Developing a sampling trawl which could determine whether there are any differences in the bathymetric distribution behavior of hake depending on age classes. This four-seam bottom trawl is equipped with a horizontal separating layer placed at the middle of the side seams, dividing the trawl into two equal parts along its entire length. Trials to recover live hake with a fish well at the stern. This falls under the Mediterranean MEDICIS - FISHERIES TECHNOLOGY program.
