The most abundant species were the cods and haddocks Gabidae, which were notably only recorded over inshore soft sediment substrates. Gobies Gobiidae and the common dragonet Callionymus lyra were also well represented in the 2 m beam trawl catches. Catches of fish and shellfish offshore and over harder and coarser seabed types were comparatively poor. https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/details/2620/summary A link to the web service or dataset. https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk A link to the general host site.
