Özet

Ghost fishing is an unwanted fishing situation which arises from the continuity of catching fish by the set net and fish traps after being lost in the marine and fresh water. This study was carried out to determine the ghost fishing situation of commercial circle fish traps. In this study, four circular traps were deployed near to a reef area, Karantina Island, Izmir Bay. between November 2002 and March 2003. Traps were observed by daily diving surveys. Depending on fish density, fish learned to escape from the traps' openings or from the bar gaps after the 10th day. Ghost fishing was not observed after the first mount.
