Demersal fish live and feed on or near the bottom of seas or lakes. They occupy the sea floors and lake beds, which usually consist of mud, sand, gravel or rocks. In coastal waters they are found on or near the continental shelf, and in deep waters they are found on or near the continental slope or along the continental rise. They are not generally found in the deepest waters, such as abyssal depths or on the abyssal plain, but they can be found around seamounts and islands. The word demersal comes from the Latin demergere, which means to sink.
Demersal fish are bottom feeders. They can be contrasted with pelagic fish which live and feed away from the bottom in the open water column. Demersal fish fillets contain little fish oil, whereas pelagic fish can contain up to 30 percent.

This video was produced May 2002.
This video with a running time approximately 12 minutes, details how a typical demersal longline fishing vessel for Chatham, Massachusetts sets and hauls the gear. In the process of hauling the gear sub-legal fish including cod Gadus morhua are caught along with market sized fish. In the past, sub-legal fish were "snubbed" off the hook, which means the hook was pulled by the hauling gear while the fish was blocked. "Snubbing" fish resulted in severe trauma to the mouth region of the fish (usually a broken jaw). Wounding of a sub-legal fish probably has negative affects on survival after such an injury. One fisherman developed and used a technique, which minimizes the damage to sub-legal fish. His idea was to release the fish without causing much injury to the fish and still continue to haul the gear quickly. There are several scenes depicting the release method developed and used by this fisherman. Also, some scenes have been slowed down in order to teach others how to utilize this technique. Some fish were netted to see if there was any visible damage on the fish after this method was applied. This project was funded by SK-Grant NA06FD0177 and is catalogued as number 02MADMF765 in the DMF Video Library.

Cod is the common name for the genus Gadus of demersal fishes, belonging to the family Gadidae. Cod is also used as part of the common name for a number of other fish species, and there are species suggested to belong to genus Gadus that are not called cod (the Alaska pollock).
The two most important species of cod are the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), which lives in the colder waters and deeper sea regions throughout the North Atlantic, and the Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus), found in both eastern and western regions of the northern Pacific. Gadus morhua was named by Linnaeus in 1758. (However, G. morhua callarias, a low-salinity, non-migratory race restricted to parts of the Baltic, was originally described as Gadus callarias by Linnaeus.)
Cod is popular as a food with a mild flavour and a dense, flaky white flesh. Cod livers are processed to make cod liver oil, an important source of vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA). Young Atlantic cod or haddock prepared in strips for cooking is called scrod. In the United Kingdom, Atlantic cod is one of the most common ingredients in fish and chips, along with haddock and plaice.
Cod has been an important economic commodity in international markets since the Viking period (around 800 AD). Norwegians traveled with dried cod and soon a dried cod market developed in southern Europe. This market has lasted for more than 1,000 years, enduring the Black Death, wars and other crises, and is still an important Norwegian fish trade.[68] The Portuguese began fishing cod in the 15th century. Clipfish is widely enjoyed in Portugal. The Basques played an important role in the cod trade, and allegedly found the Canadian fishing banks before Columbus' discovery of America.[69] The North American east coast developed in part due to the vast cod stocks. Many cities in the New England area are located near cod fishing grounds. The fish was so important to the history and development of Massachusetts, the state's House of Representatives hung a wood carving of a codfish, known as the Sacred Cod of Massachusetts, in its chambers.
Apart from the long history, cod differ from most fish because the fishing grounds are far from population centers. The large cod fisheries along the coast of North Norway (and in particular close to the Lofoten islands) have been developed almost uniquely for export, depending on sea transport of stockfish over large distances.[70] Since the introduction of salt, dried and salted cod (clipfish or 'klippfisk' in Norwegian) has also been exported. By the end of the 14th century, the Hanseatic League dominated trade operations and sea transport, with Bergen as the most important port.[71]
William Pitt the Elder, criticizing the Treaty of Paris in Parliament, claimed cod was "British gold"; and that it was folly to restore Newfoundland fishing rights to the French.
In the 17th and 18th centuries in the New World, especially in Massachusetts and Newfoundland, cod became a major commodity, creating trade networks and cross-cultural exchanges. In 1733, Britain tried to gain control over trade between New England and the British Caribbean by imposing the Molasses Act, which they believed would eliminate the trade by making it unprofitable. The cod trade grew instead, because the "French were eager to work with the New Englanders in a lucrative contraband arrangement".[69] In addition to increasing trade, the New England settlers organized into a "codfish aristocracy". The colonists rose up against Britain's "tariff on an import".
In the 20th century, Iceland re-emerged as a fishing power and entered the Cod Wars. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, fishing off the European and American coasts severely depleted stocks and become a major political issue. The necessity of restricting catches to allow stocks to recover upset the fishing industry and politicians reluctant to hurt employment.

I recently had the privilege to fish with local fishing fanatic Eddie Sheppard out near Rottnest Island, off Perth Western Australia.
Eddie showed me some of the great fishing we have right here in our own backyard and the methods and preparation he uses to catch fish successfully.
I ended up landing a very nice Shark Mackerel at 97cm and Eddie scored a nice Breaksea Cod and some smaller sized Bronze Whalers amongst other demersal fish like Snapper and Dhufish.

A flatfish is a member of the order Pleuronectiformes of ray-finned demersal fishes, also called the Heterosomata, sometimes classified as a suborder of Perciformes. In many species, both eyes lie on one side of the head, one or the other migrating through and around the head during development. Some species face their left sides upward, some face their right sides upward, and others face either side upward. Some flatfish can camouflage themselves on the ocean floor.
Flatfishes are found in oceans worldwide, ranging from the Arctic, through the tropics, to Antarctica. Most species are found in depths between 0 and 500 m (0 and 1,640 ft), but a few have been recorded from depths in excess of 1,500 m (4,900 ft).

The word demersal comes from the Latin demergere, which means to sink.
Demersal fish are bottom feeders. They can be contrasted with pelagic fish which live and feed away from the bottom in the open water column. Demersal fish fillets contain little fish oil (one to four percent), whereas pelagic fish can contain up to 30 percent.
Demersal fish can be divided into two main types: strictly benthic fish which can rest on the sea floor, and benthopelagic fish which can float in the water column just above the sea floor.
Benthopelagic fish have neutral buoyancy, so they can float at depth without much effort, while strictly benthic fish are more dense, with negative buoyancy so they can lie on the bottom without any effort. Most demersal fish are benthopelagic.

Demersal fish
Demersal fish live and feed on or near the bottom of seas or lakes. They occupy the sea floors and lake beds, which usually consist of mud, sand, gravel or rocks. In coastal waters they are found on or near the continental shelf, and in deep waters they are found on or near the continental slope or along the continental rise. They are not generally found in the deepest waters, such as abyssal depths or on the abyssal plain, but they can be found around seamounts and islands. The word demersal comes from the Latin demergere, which means to sink. Demersal fish are bottom feeders. They can be contrasted with pelagic fish which live and feed away from the bottom in the open water column. Demersal fish fillets contain little fish oil, whereas pelagic fish can contain up to 30 percent. This vi... -

Releasing Sub-legal Atlantic Cod in the Demersal Longline Fishery
This video was produced May 2002. This video with a running time approximately 12 minutes, details how a typical demersal longline fishing vessel for Chatham, Massachusetts sets and hauls the gear. In the process of hauling the gear sub-legal fish including cod Gadus morhua are caught along with market sized fish. In the past, sub-legal fish were "snubbed" off the hook, which means the hook was pulled by the hauling gear while the fish was blocked. "Snubbing" fish resulted in severe trauma to the mouth region of the fish (usually a broken jaw). Wounding of a sub-legal fish probably has negative affects on survival after such an injury. One fisherman developed and used a technique, which minimizes the damage to sub-legal fish. His idea was to release the fish without causing much in... -
Cod: The Fish that Changed the World - History, Recipes, Fishing Stocks (1998)
Cod is the common name for the genus Gadus of demersal fishes, belonging to the family Gadidae. Cod is also used as part of the common name for a number of other fish species, and there are species suggested to belong to genus Gadus that are not called cod (the Alaska pollock). The two most important species of cod are the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), which lives in the colder waters and deeper sea regions throughout the North Atlantic, and the Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus), found in both eastern and western regions of the northern Pacific. Gadus morhua was named by Linnaeus in 1758. (However, G. morhua callarias, a low-salinity, non-migratory race restricted to parts of the Baltic, was originally described as Gadus callarias by Linnaeus.) Cod is popular as a food with a mild flavour... -

Fish Finder TV -Fishing Rottnest Island with Eddie Sheppard: Snapper, Mackerel & Sharks.
I recently had the privilege to fish with local fishing fanatic Eddie Sheppard out near Rottnest Island, off Perth Western Australia. Eddie showed me some of the great fishing we have right here in our own backyard and the methods and preparation he uses to catch fish successfully. I ended up landing a very nice Shark Mackerel at 97cm and Eddie scored a nice Breaksea Cod and some smaller sized Bronze Whalers amongst other demersal fish like Snapper and Dhufish.

Flat Fish
A flatfish is a member of the order Pleuronectiformes of ray-finned demersal fishes, also called the Heterosomata, sometimes classified as a suborder of Perciformes. In many species, both eyes lie on one side of the head, one or the other migrating through and around the head during development. Some species face their left sides upward, some face their right sides upward, and others face either side upward. Some flatfish can camouflage themselves on the ocean floor. Flatfishes are found in oceans worldwide, ranging from the Arctic, through the tropics, to Antarctica. Most species are found in depths between 0 and 500 m (0 and 1,640 ft), but a few have been recorded from depths in excess of 1,500 m (4,900 ft). -

Ocean Fish 2016
Pelagic fish live in the pelagic zone of ocean or lake waters – being neither close to the bottom nor near the shore – in contrast with demersal fish, which do live on or near the bottom, and reef fish, which are associated with coral reefs. The marine pelagic environment is the largest aquatic habitat on Earth, occupying 1,370 million cubic kilometres (330 million cubic miles), and is the habitat for 11% of known fish species. The oceans have a mean depth of 4000 metres. About 98% of the total water volume is below 100 metres (330 ft), and 75% is below 1,000 metres (3,300 ft). Marine pelagic fish can be divided into pelagic coastal fish and oceanic pelagic fish. Coastal fish inhabit the relatively shallow and sunlit waters above the continental shelf, while oceanic fish (which may well ... -
Artsseleksjon i snurrevad / Species selection in a demersal seine
Seperation of cod and haddock in a demersal seine. Seleksjonsanordninger for å skille torsk fra hyse i snurrevad ble testet på fiskefelt august - september 2014. Et nettpanel av store kvadratiske masker deler den bakerste delen av nota i øvre og nedre del. Hyse har sterk tendens til å søke opp og går igjennom kvadratmaskepanelet, mens torsken holder seg nede. I praksis kan en da la den ene arten svømme fritt ut av snurrevaden mens en fanger den andre arten. I forsøkene ble en øvre og en nedre sekk med lik maskestørrelse montert bak skillepanelet. Mesteparten av torsken havnet i den nederste sekken, og mesteparten av hyse i den øverste. Species selection in a demersal seine.

WA Dhufish
The West Australian Dhufish (Glaucosoma hebraicum) is a WA fishing icon. It grows to a great size, tastes superb and is targeted by both commercial and recreational fishers. This species belongs to the Glaucosomatidae family (the pearl perches). It's endemic to Western Australia, which means it doesn't occur anywhere else. The dhufish is an inshore demersal fish, which means it lives close to shore and close to the seabed. For any further information visit www.fish.wa.gov.au -

Of these, benthic fishes actually rest on the sea floor. The whitemargin stargazer, Uranoscopus sulphureus, spends most of its time buried in the substrate, with only its upper, or dorsal, surface exposed, where its eyes and mouth are located. Like frogfishes, stargazers are ambush predators. They have a worm-like lure that extends from the upturn...

Demersal fish live and feed on or near the bottom of seas or lakes. They occupy the sea floors and lake beds, which usually consist of mud, sand, gravel or rocks. In coastal waters they are found on or near the continental shelf, and in deep waters they are found on or near the continental slope or along the continental rise. They are not generally found in the deepest waters, such as abyssal depths or on the abyssal plain, but they can be found around seamounts and islands. The word demersal comes from the Latin demergere, which means to sink.
Demersal fish are bottom feeders. They can be contrasted with pelagic fish which live and feed away from the bottom in the open water column. Demersal fish fillets contain little fish oil, whereas pelagic fish can contain up to 30 percent.

This video was produced May 2002.
This video with a running time approximately 12 minutes, details how a typical demersal longline fishing vessel for Chatham, Massachusetts sets and hauls the gear. In the process of hauling the gear sub-legal fish including cod Gadus morhua are caught along with market sized fish. In the past, sub-legal fish were "snubbed" off the hook, which means the hook was pulled by the hauling gear while the fish was blocked. "Snubbing" fish resulted in severe trauma to the mouth region of the fish (usually a broken jaw). Wounding of a sub-legal fish probably has negative affects on survival after such an injury. One fisherman developed and used a technique, which minimizes the damage to sub-legal fish. His idea was to release the fish without causing much injury to the fish and still continue to haul the gear quickly. There are several scenes depicting the release method developed and used by this fisherman. Also, some scenes have been slowed down in order to teach others how to utilize this technique. Some fish were netted to see if there was any visible damage on the fish after this method was applied. This project was funded by SK-Grant NA06FD0177 and is catalogued as number 02MADMF765 in the DMF Video Library.

Cod is the common name for the genus Gadus of demersal fishes, belonging to the family Gadidae. Cod is also used as part of the common name for a number of other fish species, and there are species suggested to belong to genus Gadus that are not called cod (the Alaska pollock).
The two most important species of cod are the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), which lives in the colder waters and deeper sea regions throughout the North Atlantic, and the Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus), found in both eastern and western regions of the northern Pacific. Gadus morhua was named by Linnaeus in 1758. (However, G. morhua callarias, a low-salinity, non-migratory race restricted to parts of the Baltic, was originally described as Gadus callarias by Linnaeus.)
Cod is popular as a food with a mild flavour and a dense, flaky white flesh. Cod livers are processed to make cod liver oil, an important source of vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA). Young Atlantic cod or haddock prepared in strips for cooking is called scrod. In the United Kingdom, Atlantic cod is one of the most common ingredients in fish and chips, along with haddock and plaice.
Cod has been an important economic commodity in international markets since the Viking period (around 800 AD). Norwegians traveled with dried cod and soon a dried cod market developed in southern Europe. This market has lasted for more than 1,000 years, enduring the Black Death, wars and other crises, and is still an important Norwegian fish trade.[68] The Portuguese began fishing cod in the 15th century. Clipfish is widely enjoyed in Portugal. The Basques played an important role in the cod trade, and allegedly found the Canadian fishing banks before Columbus' discovery of America.[69] The North American east coast developed in part due to the vast cod stocks. Many cities in the New England area are located near cod fishing grounds. The fish was so important to the history and development of Massachusetts, the state's House of Representatives hung a wood carving of a codfish, known as the Sacred Cod of Massachusetts, in its chambers.
Apart from the long history, cod differ from most fish because the fishing grounds are far from population centers. The large cod fisheries along the coast of North Norway (and in particular close to the Lofoten islands) have been developed almost uniquely for export, depending on sea transport of stockfish over large distances.[70] Since the introduction of salt, dried and salted cod (clipfish or 'klippfisk' in Norwegian) has also been exported. By the end of the 14th century, the Hanseatic League dominated trade operations and sea transport, with Bergen as the most important port.[71]
William Pitt the Elder, criticizing the Treaty of Paris in Parliament, claimed cod was "British gold"; and that it was folly to restore Newfoundland fishing rights to the French.
In the 17th and 18th centuries in the New World, especially in Massachusetts and Newfoundland, cod became a major commodity, creating trade networks and cross-cultural exchanges. In 1733, Britain tried to gain control over trade between New England and the British Caribbean by imposing the Molasses Act, which they believed would eliminate the trade by making it unprofitable. The cod trade grew instead, because the "French were eager to work with the New Englanders in a lucrative contraband arrangement".[69] In addition to increasing trade, the New England settlers organized into a "codfish aristocracy". The colonists rose up against Britain's "tariff on an import".
In the 20th century, Iceland re-emerged as a fishing power and entered the Cod Wars. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, fishing off the European and American coasts severely depleted stocks and become a major political issue. The necessity of restricting catches to allow stocks to recover upset the fishing industry and politicians reluctant to hurt employment.

A flatfish is a member of the order Pleuronectiformes of ray-finned demersal fishes, also called the Heterosomata, sometimes classified as a suborder of Perciformes. In many species, both eyes lie on one side of the head, one or the other migrating through and around the head during development. Some species face their left sides upward, some face their right sides upward, and others face either side upward. Some flatfish can camouflage themselves on the ocean floor.
Flatfishes are found in oceans worldwide, ranging from the Arctic, through the tropics, to Antarctica. Most species are found in depths between 0 and 500 m (0 and 1,640 ft), but a few have been recorded from depths in excess of 1,500 m (4,900 ft).

Pelagic fish live in the pelagic zone of ocean or lake waters – being neither close to the bottom nor near the shore – in contrast with demersal fish, which do live on or near the bottom, and reef fish, which are associated with coral reefs.
The marine pelagic environment is the largest aquatic habitat on Earth, occupying 1,370 million cubic kilometres (330 million cubic miles), and is the habitat for 11% of known fish species. The oceans have a mean depth of 4000 metres. About 98% of the total water volume is below 100 metres (330 ft), and 75% is below 1,000 metres (3,300 ft).
Marine pelagic fish can be divided into pelagic coastal fish and oceanic pelagic fish. Coastal fish inhabit the relatively shallow and sunlit waters above the continental shelf, while oceanic fish (which may well also swim inshore) inhabit the vast and deep waters beyond the continental shelf.

Seperation of cod and haddock in a demersal seine.
Seleksjonsanordninger for å skille torsk fra hyse i snurrevad ble testet på fiskefelt august - september 2014. Et nettpanel av store kvadratiske masker deler den bakerste delen av nota i øvre og nedre del. Hyse har sterk tendens til å søke opp og går igjennom kvadratmaskepanelet, mens torsken holder seg nede. I praksis kan en da la den ene arten svømme fritt ut av snurrevaden mens en fanger den andre arten. I forsøkene ble en øvre og en nedre sekk med lik maskestørrelse montert bak skillepanelet. Mesteparten av torsken havnet i den nederste sekken, og mesteparten av hyse i den øverste.
Species selection in a demersal seine. Selection devices for separating cod from haddock in a demersal seine were tested on fishing grounds from August - September 2014. A horizontal panel of large square meshes divides the rearmost part of the seine in a upper and lower part. Haddock has a strong tendency to seek up and goes through the square mesh panel, while the cod stays in the lower part. In practice, one can fish either of the two arts while the other is allowed do swim out freely. In the experiments, two cod ends were attached to the seine belly: one upper and one lower. Most of the cod ended up in the lower cod end while most of the haddock were caught in the upper one.

The West Australian Dhufish (Glaucosoma hebraicum) is a WA fishing icon. It grows to a great size, tastes superb and is targeted by both commercial and recreational fishers. This species belongs to the Glaucosomatidae family (the pearl perches). It's endemic to Western Australia, which means it doesn't occur anywhere else.
The dhufish is an inshore demersal fish, which means it lives close to shore and close to the seabed.

Benthic fishes including stargazers, flounders and flatheads. Part 13 of my documentary, "Mucky Secrets", about the fascinating marine creatures of the Lembeh Strait in Indonesia. Watch the full 90-minute documentary at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJMZ6reOB0E
After a quick look at the panther grouper, Cromileptes altivelis, also known as the humpback grouper or barramundi cod, I explore demersal fishes, those that live on or near the seabed. Of these, benthic fishes actually rest on the sea floor.
The whitemargin stargazer, Uranoscopus sulphureus, spends most of its time buried in the substrate, with only its upper, or dorsal, surface exposed, where its eyes and mouth are located. Like frogfishes, stargazers are ambush predators. They have a worm-like lure that extends from the upturned mouth to attract fish that pass overhead. Stargazers are also equipped with poisonous spines at the rear of the operculum, the gill cover. The papillae fringing the mouth help stop sand from falling in when the fish is buried.
The leopard flounder, Bothus pantherinus, has adapted to life on the bottom with a superb camouflage. Such lefteye flounders are symmetrical and swim upright like other fishes when young. As they develop, the eye on the right side migrates to the left, thus enabling them to lie flat on the bottom. Their eye stalks can be retracted for protection, but enhance their view when extended.
Flatheads also have excellent camouflage and a stealthy, low profile, but unlike flounders, they are dorsally compressed and remain symmetrical. They are also ambush predators, and often hide by burying much of their body in the substrate. Flatheads are related to scorpionfishes and have short, venomous spines on top of their head.
We meet a Japanese flathead (Inegocia japonica), a black-banded flathead (Rogadius patriciae), and finally a pair of spiny flatheads (Onigocia spinosa) at Retak Larry, a classic, dark sand muck diving site named after the late Lembeh pioneer, Larry Smith.
There are English captions showing either the full narration or the common and scientific names of the marine life, along with the dive site names.
The full Mucky Secrets nature documentary features a huge diversity of weird and wonderful marine animals including frogfish, nudibranchs, scorpionfish, crabs, shrimps, moray eels, seahorses, octopus, cuttlefish etc..
