A study on the composition of trash fish caught in a push net was conducted near SEAFDEC T/D, Samut Prakan Province in Thailand. As preliminary survey, interviews with push net fishermen and middlemen were carried out to obtain the information on this fishing gear, fishing method, catch and landings. Based on an interview with a middleman, the amounts of landings were found to be 35 kg and 1,124 kg on the 10th and 23rd September 2004, respectively, including in them, 21 kg and 970 kg of trash fish, respectively. Their length and weight were measured individually, and they consisted of 28 species of finfish, 9 species of crustacean and 2 species of mollusk. Trash fish included undersized individuals of species of commercial value, which were sold in the market.
