Quest Fishing Consulting
Expertise in preparations of vessels and equipment
for the shrimp-by-trap fishery


A reasonable tradeoff for the privilege of harvesting the bounties of the oceans is responsibility. As fishers we are responsible for obtaining our harvest of selected species while having a minimal impact on other species and the ecosystem.

Utilization of this finite resource for the greatest benefit of all requires us to derive maximum value from the product. As stewards of the shrimp/prawn fishing resource we realize that we must get the maximum value for each and every shrimp that we catch.

The British Columbia, Canada, spot prawn trap fishery is recognized as a very low impact fishery. As such it is a very desirable method of catching shrimp and prawns as recognized by environmental watch groups.

Quest Consulting offers 25 + years of extensive experience in the shrimp by trap fishery. We can provide you with the advice and training necessary for a successful and efficient fishing operation from start to finish. While we pioneered the techniques presently used in Canada the principals remain the same for adaptation worldwide.

These techniques can give your personal operation an advantage over the competition. On a larger scale, new fisheries can be developed for species that are presently harvested by less enviro-friendly thus less acceptable methods.

Spot shrimp (Pandalus platyceros) has been our principle fishery for over 25 years. We are fisher, vessel owner and entrepreneur with a large amount of attained practical knowledge. If you are seeking advice and or require guidance related to these subject matters we can be of assistance.
