2006 - 2006 Centre for Environment, Fisheries & Aquaculture Science (Cefas) Yorkshire Coast Velvet Crab Maturity Study 2006/07 - Fisheries Science Partnership
Description
A sample of 28 crabs was returned to the laboratory at the end of Fisheries
Science Partnership work carried out at Bridlington with the aim of
investigating the feasibility of a study on reproductive cycle.
The fishing vessels *Hollie J * and *Magdalene Ann * were chartered in
June 2006 to carry out a potting survey for velvet crabs in the area from
Flamborough Head to North of Spurn Point. Target fishing positions were spread
throughout the survey area, but potential gear conflicts confined most
stations to a band 6 to 12 miles off the coast. The survey took place in June
when catch rates of velvet swimming crabs were beginning to increase after a
delayed start to the season.
