Abstract

The construction and installation of a modified fyke-net trap, designed for use in small lowland rivers, is described. The trap is inexpensive to construct, lightweight and very portable. Small-scale trials, with traps installed in the R. Perry, demonstrated their effectiveness in capturing a wide range of size-classes of coarse fish species. The trap can be a useful tool in sampling and movement studies involving coarse fish species in small lowland rivers.
