Full scale fishing trials for tusk (Brosme brosme) and cod (Gadus morhua) with a collapsible fish trap

A collapsible fish trap with low weight and low stacking volume has been developed and tested in full scale fishing operations. The catch rates of tusk were promising, while the catches of cod were too low and variable to commercial fishing operation.
