Surrounding net


A surrounding net is the fishing net which surrounds fish as well as other aquatic animals on a sides and underneath. it is typically used by commercial fishers, and pulled along the surface of the water. There is typically a purse line at the bottom, which is closed when the net is hauled in.

A surrounding net is deployed by a fishing boat that starts sailing in a circle. This allows for the net to come any the way around 360 degrees to completely surround the fish. This enables it so that there is no escape for the fish. There are floating buoys on the top of the net and weights on the bottom of the net to hit sure that it forms a wall. This is one of the easiest ways to trap a school of fish. As stated above, a seine net is one of the near common sort of surrounding nets used in the commercial fishing industry. One negative of surrounding nets is the fact that they might catch an animal that they are not intentionally trying to catch, but this does non happen any that often.
