Morenot Canada Ltd. products

We have constructed a very large, very involved traditional aboriginal multi-winged and multi-part salmon trap net for a live salmon catch and tagging program. We have made specialized Beach Seines for a Government Hatchery broodstock capture program.

Sweep Nets or Crowding Nets for handling the larger population of fish inside larger nets are something we build regularly.

Stacking tray systems for oysters or mussels is an efficient way to deal with substantial numbers of animals in a relatively compact package. For each lift to the surface a large number can be dealt with at one time whether for cleaning maintenance or harvesting rather than having to deal with many smaller packages.

Our Smaller black Mussel Bouys are individual 16” diameter balls with a single attachment lug to secure them. These bouys can be used to support longline systems as well but are not capable of supporting the weight of heavier “stacked tray” growing apparatus which are sometimes hung from the Double-Line Barrel bouy supported style.

We carry a range of smaller black plastic Mussel bouys typically for suspending mussel longline systems. As well we have larger “Barrel Bouys” which are rotationally molded plastic as well fashioned from a steel drum. These bouys have rounded ends and beefy loops on each for securing in a longline system where typically two long horizontal ropes will be strung through each end of these barrels so that many will lay in a line between these two horizontal surface ropes and will carry the weight of shellfish growing systems suspended vertically off these surface lines. These Barrel Bouys are typically black to reduce their visibility but they are also available in yellow.

This 3 – strand frayed rope has small rope fibers protruding off the rope everywhere in order to aid Mussels in better hanging onto this rope you socked them around when they were just tiny seed stock. If growth is good usually additional Spikes or Anti-sloughing Discs may have to be inserted through this rope at intervals as close as 16” apart to prevent the Mussels from sloughing off as they grow larger and heavier.

We carry a small stock of Cotton (dissolving) socking for longline Mussel growers. This product is available in various mesh sizes depending on what you require for the size of the seed you are trying to sock.
