LGRIG® Pelagic Trawl doors Sea Fox, also known as Trawldoor.
LGRIG® trawl door is a device used in commercial fishing to help control the movement and shape of fishing nets as they are dragged through the water.
Trawldoor size and shape can vary depending on the size and type of fishing vessel and the species being targeted, with some doors fitted with additional features such as weight sensors or adjustable wings to help optimize performance.
As fishing technologies advance, so do trawl doors, with heavy wooden doors once widely used across Europe's fleet now replaced by steel doors as the dominant seller.
These days, the design and hydrodynamics of trawl doors are as advanced as the design and aerodynamics used by car and airplane manufacturers.
Skippers have their preferences in trawl doors depending on history, the grounds they fish, and what they fish for.
Whether used alongside a Trawling Bobbin or other ground gear, LGRIG® trawl doors deliver reliable performance and precise net control for demanding commercial fishing operations.
