How long will they live out of water? Being a commercial lobster fisherman in the great state of Maine, I was just wondering. Thanks, John.

Nice haul! Nothing like bringing a live product to market. Good job.

what type of fishing gear is used? bottom trawl? double rig trawl??

Yes; larger tubes are used for larger individual Nephrops. Mortality rates are remarkably low (<=10%) when the catch arrives at the (predominantly Spanish) market.
Skipper Ian Wightman shows how he uses tubes to deliver trawl-caught langoustine prawns to market - alive and in top-quality condition. View the complete playlist: http://goo.gl/35lAjG Operating his vessel EILIDH ANNE out of Largs in Ayrshire, Ian sends his prawns to market alive in individual tubes. In this way, he takes advantage of an insatiable European demand for high quality live langoustines - and gets the best prices for them. This video reflects a typical working day trawling on board the EILIDH ANNE in the Firth of Clyde. Ian Wightman was the first skipper in the UK to join the Responsible Fishing Scheme.
