Abstract
Foldable dome fishing pots are commonly used by fishermen in Tuban regency. A concern regarding that gear is the availability of trash fish as the common bait. Alternatively, chicken innard produced from local poultry industry could be used to substitute the bait due to its abundance. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect trash fish and chicken innard on the catch of the foldable dome fishing pots. The study was conducted in 10 days experimental fishing in October-December 2018 in Socorejo Village, Jenu District, Tuban regency, East Java, using 60 units of pots. The bait was placed in the middle of the pot. The catch were grouped based on types of bait. The length (cm), width (cm) and weight (gr) were measured for each type of fish or crab caught in the pots. Data were analyzed using t-test. The total catch of pots during the study consisted of octopus, fish, swimming crabs, other crabs, shellfish, snails and shrimp. The t-test shows that there is no significant effect between different baits on the catch of foldable dome fishing pots.
