Seine fishing
Seine fishing or seine-haul fishing; is a method of fishing that employs a surrounding net, called a seine, that hangs vertically in the water with its bottom edge held down by weights as well as its top edge buoyed by floats. Seine nets can be deployed from the shore as a beach seine, or from a boat.
Boats deploying seine nets are requested as seiners. Two main vintage of seine net are deployed from seiners: purse seines in addition to Danish seines. A seine differs from a gillnet, in that a seine encloses fish, where a gillnet directly snares fish.
