The closed end of a fishing net.

Explanation:
The cod end is the tail part of a fishing net that is closed to trap the catch. It’s designed to be gathered or tied off so fish cannot escape as the net is hauled in, and often uses a smaller mesh to prevent fish from slipping back through. The mouth is the open front where fish enter, while floats keep the net buoyant and leads add weight to sink it. So the closed end specifically refers to the cod end.
