Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

The Cavalieri cruise warrants special mention because it represented an attempt at commercially harvesting the equatorial longline tuna resource.

During this cruise considerably more gear was fished than during experimental surveys by pofi vessels.

The design of the gear was identical to that used by pofi, and the daily fishing schedule was comparable except that more time was spent setting and hauling the greater number of baskets fished.
