manzuá (monofilament nylon trap)
I suggest leaving the term in in Pt, followed by a brief explanation about its meaning.
The main fishing gears used are relatively small wooden and monofilament nylon traps (0.5m X 0.75m) called "covo" or " manzuá " and gill nets are also being used since 1995. The lobster fishery in northeastern Brazil began in the mid 1950’s, in the state of Ceará, when fishing companies began buying catches from “Jangadeiros”, artisanal (small scale) fishers for industrial processing and export, mainly as frozen tails.
