Spanish term

Redes de arrastre de fondo de puertas

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Ships, Sailing, Maritime Fisheries / Fishing equipment
SPAIN. It's the "de puertas" bit that has me stumped. No more context, it's just a list:

"Redes atrasmalladas y redes de enmalle combinadas
Redes de arrastre de fondo a la pareja
Redes de arrastre de fondo de puertas
Redes de arrastre de vara
Redes de arrastre gemelas con puertas
Redes de arrastre pelágico a la pareja
Redes de arrastre pelágico de puertas..."

'Trawl door' could be a starting point; I don't recall more detail but I think I have come across the term.

Observer program operations manual
5.1.1 Otter Trawls - Bottom Trawls
***During a tow, the trawl is generally kept open through the use of large metal plates known as doors which provide a spreading action. In bottom trawls these are generally oval shaped, unlike in mid-water trawls where rectangular doors are used. These oval doors plus the heavily protected footrope which rides on the seabed, serve as the main distinctions between bottom trawls and pelagic trawls***.

Redes de arrastre de fondo de puertas (ovaladas o rectangulares)

Manual de operaciones de un programa de observación
www.fao.org/docrep/003/S8480S/S8480S05.htm

5.1.1 Artes de arrastre con puertas - Arrastres de fondo
Durante un arrastre, la red se mantiene abierta mediante la utilización generalmente de grandes piezas metálicas conocidas como puertas, que actúan separando las bandas del arte mediante una acción divergente. En los artes de arrastre de fondo las puertas son generalmente de forma ovalada, en contraste con los artes de arrastre pelágicos, en los que se utilizan puertas rectangulares. Estas puertas ovales, junto con la relinga inferior, fuertemente protegida, que corre sobre el fondo marino, constituyen las principales diferencias entre los artes de arrastre de fondo y los artes de arrastre pelágicos.
