A trapping device for trapping shellfish comprising a first frame (10, fig 1) having a plurality of rigidly coupled frame members 11-1, 11-2 and a second frame (20, fig 1) having a plurality of smaller frame members interconnected by a net 30. The second frame is reconfigurable between a collapsed configuration in which the second frame extends within the first frame for storage, and an extended configuration in which it extends from the first frame to define one or more trapping enclosures for the shellfish. Preferably the device is provided with a plurality of partitions between the respective frames to define a plurality of trap enclosures. Preferably the frame members are hollow and provided with air holes to aid buoyancy. The device preferably comprises a grapple for securing the device on the seabed of other surface. |
