Dear list members,
first of all I wish to thank all those who have responded (privately or on-list) to my survey on VIDEO OF FISHING GEAR ON THE BOTTOM for educational purposes, and have passed on some valuable info.
Please find below a summary of the replies, plus a list of web links that I have found searching through Google (including photo galleries and other stuff). My search hasn't ended yet, but I think this can be a good starting point. Hope that others will find this survey useful.
Regards, Carlo Pipitone

Carlo, The one film I had the opportunity to watch was shot by a group out of Woods Hole that is working on new new technology and such. It was very well filmed, clear and easy to see how they work and how fish behavior can be used to reduce bycatch. Someone at Sea Grant in Mass. or NMFS, or Greg Morris may know the persons involved and could steer you there. -------------------------------- Try the Live Lobster Cam at: <http://www.midcoast.com/lobcam/originalweb.html>http<http://www.midcoast.com/lobcam/originalweb.html>://www.midcoast.com/lobcam/originalweb.html http://www.thelobstercam.com/ Ask the folks who organize it if they have some intersting archived footage. --------------------------------- The Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering (RACE) Division at the Alaska Fisheries Science Centre (NMFS-NOAA) provides streaming video of their survey gear (deployment and underwater operation). Very well done. http://www.afsc.noaa.gov/race/ ---------------------------------- As for web-based sources, I recommend visiting The Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering (RACE) Division at the Alaska Fisheries Science Centre (NMFS-NOAA). Their site provides excellent streaming video of their survey gear (deployment and underwater operation). Click on "Field Videos" in the right hand column. http://www.afsc.noaa.gov/race/ ---------------------------------- I would suggest contacting Whit Sheard at the Ocean Conservancy Anchorage office. His email is [log in to unmask] ---------------------------------- -- from: [log in to unmask] -- I have otter trawl video tape--before and after--California halibut fishing. However. there are no markers to indicate impacts to the bottom which are negligible. There are fewer large halibut, but Dungeness crab, octopus, etc. continue. The greatest disruption is from the ROV occasionally striking the sand substrate. Possibly I can provide MIT with a copy or two. The tape was produced by California Sea Grant during experiments by the California Depat. of Fish and Game. Approx. 1 hour. ------------------------------------ Look at this website and see if you are interested. If you contact Waldo he might be able to send you some photos and/or videos. http://newport.pmel.noaa.gov/heceta/index.htm ------------------------------------ -- from [log in to unmask] , http://www.gov.nf.ca/nfgov_ml.htm -- We are in the process of compiling a list of appropriate videos for you.

You can order these videos: <http://www.frs-scotland.gov.uk/FRS.Web/Delivery/Information_resources/information_resources_view_documents.aspx?resourceId=40>http://www.frs-scotland.gov.uk/FRS.Web/Delivery/Information_resources/information_resources_view_documents.aspx?resourceId=40 ---------------------------------- I can't help with vidoe footage of gear on the bottom, but if you look at my web page (www.ecoknow.ca) and click on the tab 'educational materials' you will be brought to a streamed video concerning fishing knoweldge as practiced on the west coast of Canada. The video that relates to fihsing is called "Chasing the fish." ----------------------------------- We have some mpeg video files taken from a fishing trawl at our website www.star-oddi.com. The cameras are actually located inside an underwater tagging equipment inside the trawl. Let me know if need more files, or more information. ------------------------------------ Try: http://www.mslabs.noaa.gov/mslabs/harvest/ted_technology.htm ------------------------------------ -- from [log in to unmask] -- We have a CD with some footage of bottom trawling in action. It's in amongst video of deep sea coral, so you may need to do a little editing. I'll put a copy in the mail for you to the address below, on the understanding that it is only for educational purposes. ------------------------------------ The Seafish Industry Authority (Edinburgh or Hull, UK) has an excellent library of video material. ------------------------------------ Maybe one of the SPC Traing Videos might be helpful: http://www.spc.int/coastfish/Sections/training/Training%20material/Training_material.htm A list of other videos available in our Library is attached. ------------------------------------ http://www.museum.state.il.us/RiverWeb/harvesting/archives/ http://www.world-fishing-resources.com/fishing_hoop_net.html http://www.eurocbc.org/page2.html http://td.seafdec.org/info/Audio.html http://www.afsc.noaa.gov/race/media/videos/vids_gear.htm http://www.soi.wide.ad.jp/class/20020017/slides/02/ http://www.snorrason.is/gallery2/album10?&page=1 http://www.nwstraits.org/derelict_gear_FS.html#Removal http://www.crenvironmental.com/NOAAtrawl.htm http://www.americanoceans.org/fish/trawlpack1.htm http://collections.ic.gc.ca/fisheries/video.asp?frame=o http://www.mi.mun.ca/mi-net/nf-fish/gallery.htm http://www.photolib.noaa.gov/historic/nmfs/index.html http://oceanexplorer.noaa.gov/explorations/02sab/logs/aug11/media/aug11_trawling.html http://www.cjtripnewton.com/fishing-videos.php http://www.fisheries.ubc.ca/gallery/ http://www.americanoceans.org/trawlingimages.htm http://www.ece.eps.hw.ac.uk/~amason/trawling_impacts.htm http://www.gov.nf.ca/panl/fishery.html http://www.oceana.org/index.cfm?sectionID=17&fuseaction=52 http://www.frs-scotland.gov.uk/FRS.Web/Delivery/Information_resources/information_resources_view_document.aspx?resourceId=40&documentId=1134 http://www.gov.nf.ca/fishaq/fdp/FisheriesVideos.htm#Videos
