V-notching is a voluntary practice amongst commercial lobster fish harvesters where one in four egg-bearing female lobsters is notched with a special tool that cuts a V shape from the section of the tail fan. The lobster is then carefully returned to the water. V-notching remains clearly visible for several years, and allows the female to grow larger, spawn several times and produce more and better quality eggs. 3, record 1, English, - V%2Dnotching

Le marquage par encoche en V est une mesure appliquée volontairement par les pêcheurs commerciaux de homard. Il s'agit de pratiquer une encoche en V au moyen d'un outil spécial sur l'éventail de la queue [d'une femelle uvée] sur quatre. Les homards ainsi marqués sont ensuite remis à l'eau avec précaution. L'encoche en V reste visible pendant plusieurs années. En préservant de la capture les femelles ainsi marquées, on leur permet de grossir, de se reproduire plusieurs fois et de pondre des [œufs] plus nombreux et de meilleure qualité. 2, record 1, French, - marquage%20par%20encoche%20en%20V
