Figure 9. Locations of otter trawl fishing effort (color squares)
in 2003 from vessels
using VMS (vessel monitoring systems). Locations are plotted only for vessels
speeds <= 3.5 knots and data are aggregated to 1’ square. Blue
squares represent
1-8 hours, green 9 – 25 hours; yellow 26-63 hours; orange 64 – 145
hours, and red
146 – 309 hours. Observed otter trawl tows (white circles) in 2003.
