Abstract

Fishing capacity and activity of four fleets using "rapido" trawl along the Italian coasts were investigated. Consistent fleets exist only in the Adriatic, while this gear is scarcely employed along the western Italian coasts. Boat length, GRT, engine power, fishing activity and total landings of the Adriatic fleets were considerably higher than those of the western basin vessels. These differences were reduced when landings per unit of effort are considred.
