11.7.2.The Danish Trawl
This is a modification of the rope developed in Denmark. In this trawl ropes and twines are at an angle to the direction of the flow. The ropes are positioned like the normal netting bars. Therefore, they appear to transfer the forces acting on the net very well on to the headlines and provide excellent herding effect.
