Tuna Seine: two depth sensors with temperature on purse line
Pelagic trawl: DepthSensor on the headline with temperature, and one on the cod end
Bottom trawl: DepthSensor on the headline, with temperature option
User benefits
Position the trawl at correct depth to target a shoal
Mounted on the cod end – avoid a sinking bag when hauling a pelagic trawl
Know when to start towing in the landing phase
Purse seine – watch the sinking speed and depth using one or several Depth Sensors
