Abstract (en)

[origin: CA3145183A1] The present invention relates to a method for locating drifting gear, noteworthy in that it comprises at least the following steps: - anchoring a submerged beacon to one of the ends of the drifting gear, said submerged beacon being equipped with means that ensure it will rise to the surface and comprising a casing enclosing a transceiver of a radio-acoustic signal associated with a control unit, and a release mechanism allowing said beacon to rise in response to reception of a code and an order by said control unit, - geolocating the start point of the drifting gear, in order to allow the fisherman to delineate the region of its location by estimating the drift of his drifting gear from the start point so as to direct the search for said drifting gear in the estimated direction, - locating the drifting gear using the submerged beacon.
