Got the workings for 'ostracod' thanks to Quizmonster. The explanation is:
OS = outsize + tra(p) + cod.

But the clue was: Tiny crustacean and enormous fish caught in net mostly? The opposite. (8)
and on second thoughts, I'm wondering why the setter added 'the opposite.' Isn't it a bit redundant? Or am I missing something yet again?

Because 'net mostly' (tra) is caught in the enormous fish, not the other way round!
