Title
(EN) WHALE-SAFE ROPE
(FR) CORDAGE SANS DANGER POUR LES BALEINES
Abstract
(EN) A rope comprising weak fibers for use with fishing gear, wherein the rope has a diameter between 5/16 inch and 1 inch and breaks between 600 and 2200 pounds of pulling tension. The rope is ideal for netfishing or trapfishing since its use will reduce deaths in whales and other cetaceans which currently occur during netfishing or trapfishing. Netfishing is performed with a net which incorporates the inventive rope as a head rope in the net. Trapfishing is performed with a multisectional rope which is attached to a trap at one end and is attached at the opposite end to a buoy wherein a section of the multisectional rope attached to the buoy is the inventive rope.
(FR) La présente invention concerne un cordage comportant des fibres faibles et conçu pour être utilisé avec un équipement de pêche. Ledit cordage possède un diamètre compris entre 5/16 de pouce et 1 pouce et se rompt pour une tension de traction comprise entre 600 et 2200 livres. Ce cordage est idéal pour la pêche au filet ou la pêche au piège car il permet de réduire la mortalité des baleines et autres cétacés, la mortalité de ces animaux survenant couramment lors de la pêche au filet ou de la pêche au piège. La pêche au filet est effectuée avec un filet qui intègre le cordage décrit ci-dessus en tant que corde de dos du filet. La pêche au piège est mise en oeuvre au moyen d'un cordage à sections multiples qui est fixé à un piège au niveau d'une extrémité et fixé à une bouée au niveau de l'autre extrémité, une section dudit cordage à sections multiples qui est attachée à la bouée étant composée du cordage décrit ci-dessus.
