Sounds like they’ve still got some work to do to identify the areas that have been bottom trawled.
Thing is, I’ve been out of fisheries since the 90s, but back then bottom trawling was illegal in territorial waters, I thought? All the surface trawlers would never have done it anyway because they understood how destructive it could be for future years.
