The winners for the 2007 International Smart Gear Competition were announced at the Pacific Marine Expo in Seattle. The Grand Prize of $30,000 went to a team of Rhode Island scientists, fishermen and a net maker, beating out 69 other entries from 22 countries. Their entry was based around a net, aptly named "The Eliminator" which captures haddock while reducing the accidental netting of other species.
