ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for supply of a trawl comprising a ground line and gangions attached at spaced intervals thereto; in the method a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart hook racks which support the trawl, is advanced along an arcuate path, in a first direction, until a first hook rack arrives at an operative position for supplying the trawl to a baiter; the first rack is held in position and the gangions of the trawl are drawn from the first hook rack, with travel of the ground line of the trawl through a baiter; when the first hook rack is emptied the hook racks are advanced along the arcuate path until a second following hook rack is in the operative position; the racks are pivotally mounted in parallel arrangement, on a frame of circular cross-section, thus as the racks are emptied they are rotated away from the operative position; prolonged interruptions for replacing the heavy hook racks manually as well as the need for secure deck storage space for empty racks in the vicinity of the assembly are thus avoided.
