This study aims to determine the effect of escape gap on catch composition, CPUE, and trap rate at the northern coast of Tuban Regency. The research was conducted by ten trips of experimental fishing at different locations in November 2019. A total of 60 units of cube folding traps were installed long line, consisting of cube folding traps without escape gaps, cube folding traps with escape gaps 6x3 cm, cube folding traps escape gaps 7x4 cm, 20 units, respectively. The fish catch composition consists of 18 species of 6 groups, i.e., fish, swimmer crab, shrimp, hermit crab, and snail. Fish were the most dominant group captured by cube folding traps in the northern coast of Tuban Regency (59.7%), followed by swimmer crab, snail, crab, shrimp, and hermit crab. The highest catch per unit effort was found in cube folding traps with escape gaps 7x4 cm as much as 6,94 gr/traps/trip. The highest of the trap rate (18%) was obtained in the cube folding traps without escape gap. There was a significant difference (p=95%) in the weight of fish catches and CPUE between cube folding traps without escape gaps and the cube folding traps with escape gaps 7 x 4 cm.
