  abstract = {{T}rammelnets are sometimes considered as harmful gears for coastal reef resources and their banning has been recommended in the {C}aribbean. {I}n the present state of the fishing technologies and strategies used in {M}artinique, trammels are more species selective than {A}ntillean wire traps because they target mainly spiny lobsters and their fishing time is shorter. {F}urthermore, the trammels catch finfish at a much larger size than traps of the most common mesh sizes, including the mesh sizes recommended as optimal; however, no obvious differences were found between traps and trammels in their selectivity for lobsters. {T}herefore, the trammels are not more destructive than the widely accepted wire traps, at least as long as the reef fishery targets medium-sized fish at the expense of the larger species. {T}he main drawback of trammels is the waste of spoiled fish. {A}n optimal use of this gear could be fishing for lobsters with a net of low height and possibly larger mesh size.
