ABSTRACT:
A collapsible, wheel supported shrimp trawl of the beam type, the beam being centrally hinged on a vertical axis in a direction towards the trailing trawl net and operable from the towing vessel to fold the beam and collapse the trawl, thereby simplifying the bringing aboard of the trawl and its subsequent storage. The beam includes forwardly mounted stabilizing wings and a towline and bridle arrangement including a central liveline or tripline to effect opening and closing of the hinged beam and thus the entire trawl.
