    Resumen

    This paper provides a review of the three main trawling systems used to target Antarctic krill: traditional, continuous fishing systems and fishing systems utilising pumping to clear the codend. Common terms used in reference to trawling techoniques and gear are defined, with specific emphasis on continuous trawling. The operational procedures for trawl vessels targeting krill in the Antarctic are described including standard procedures for setting and hauling.
