Multi-Rig Trawl Systems

Summary

Multi-rig trawling developments started in the Gulf of Mexico shrimp fisheries in the early 1950's. Adoption elsewhere in the world was slower, for example most of the Australian shrimp and prawn fisheries did not take up the multi-rig option until the early 1970's.
