Mesh Size Selectivity of Tie-Down Gillnets for the Blackfin Flounder (<i>Glyptocephalus stelleri</i>) in Korea

Although gillnet fisheries are increasingly common in Korea, few studies have conducted sea trials using tie-down gillnets. Here, we analyzed the mesh size selectivity using tie-down gillnets with four different mesh sizes (84, 90, 105, and 120 mm) to catch blackfin flounders. A total of 10 sea tria...
