Fish trap on a Bahamian deep reef

Fish trap on a Bahamian deep reef

This fish trap was found on one of the most beautiful and healthy deep reefs in area. The trap contained 3 queen angels, 2 gray angels, 2 coney groupers, 1 nassau grouper and 1 parrot fish. It is disgusting to see the amount of non targeted fish species (ie. angels and parrotfish) these traps remove. The trap was tied to a rope that ran square across the reef and was connected to a many more traps, about 60 feet apart.
