The Vónin Bacalao bottom trawl has proved itself a versatile workhorse that performs on virtually any fishing grounds. It handles well and needs minimal maintenance as it suffers very little damage due to its unique design, and therefore fishing can be made very efficiently.
Originally developed in the 1990s by Vónin co-founder Otto Dam, the design has been revised several times, but retains many of its original characteristics, such as the capacity to be towed fast without losing its ground contact.
Practically any groundfish species can be fished with the Bacalao trawl, from Saithe, Cod and Haddock to Greenland Halibut, Redfish, Monkfish and Argentine.
Used for:
- Saithe - Monkfish
- Cod - Argentine
- Haddock - Flatfish
