About this document

Overview of Seine Fishing Methods by Harikrishna is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Encircling fishing methods like seine nets and purse seines are used to surround and capture schools of fish. Seine nets are large, light nets that are set in a circle around the fish using anchors and warps. The warps are then pulled in together to herd the fish into the center of the net. Purse seines use a long net set in a circle with a bottom line that can be closed like a purse to hold the caught fish. Both methods surround fish before capturing them and bringing them aboard the fishing vessel.
