Abstract: A fish trap habitat system including fish trap habitats which are movable to varying ocean depths and ocean floor locations. The fish trap habitats include a frame of interconnected hollow frame members, and a screen attached to the frame to form a fish trap enclosure. Portals are formed through the fish trap enclosure. The fish trap habitat can include an artificial reef within the fish trap enclosure. The frame can include a pontoon, a removable holding tank, and accept wheels for travel on dry land. In one form, the fish trap habitat is raised and lowered by a hollow cable fluidly connected to the frame and capable of injecting air into the hollow frame members. In another form, a propulsion system is attached to the frame of the first fish trap habitat. In yet another form, the fish trap habitat includes a structural framework forming a multi-level structure.
