Sea lion in a fishing net

Описание: This video was shot during while trawling a highly modified net. Camera housings and lights made by GroupBinc.com. This net was made specifically to sort juvenile fish from mature fish. This selection process reduces by-catch to virtually nothing. Of all the fish that you see coming into the net (overall about 50K lbs), only 10% were kept (bigger mature), while the others swam through the net unscathed.
Furthermore, this new design reduces bottom contact by 95%.
In this experiment, the trawler made 10 passes with the new net. A ROV was then deployed to record the damage. Several times, the ROV crew had to double check their position as there was no damage to the seafloor. It wasn't until they got on the edge of the path that there was a slight 6cm depression, the width of the barndoor. Needless to say, this new net will revolutionize global commercial fishing.
