Station, catch, length (all species) and All catches (retained and discarded) were recorded as numbers by species. Length data were recorded for all species and maturity data were recorded for blue ling. Otoliths and fin samples of blue ling were taken for age determination studies and DNA analysis (for future stock structure studies), respectively.
