Description:: This feature collection summarizes logbook records from the CDFW Marine Log System (MLS) showing the density of trawls targeting California halibut from 1997 to 2017. Data from CDFW Marine Log System (MLS) were extracted to determine the start position, end position, vessel ID, tow or drag number ID, date, target species, and species landed. Records were transformed and plotted to create straight line trawl tracks attributed with date and targets. Lines were filtered to remove records plotted on land and track lines greater than 25km in length. Records were selected for California halibut and summarize by the ArcGIS line density function. Results are presented by a 1km cell GRID representing a 5km search radius. Units are reported as total length of trawls (Km) within the search area.
