Seine netting is a fishing technique that involves using a large net, called a seine, to encircle fish in a specific area. The net is typically deployed from a boat or from the shore, and it has weights at the bottom and floats at the top, creating a barrier that traps fish. This method is commonly used in both freshwater and saltwater environments.
The seine net can vary in size and design, depending on the target species and fishing location. Fishermen often use purse seines for larger catches, while beach seines are used in shallow waters. Seine netting is an efficient way to catch schools of fish, such as herring or sardines.
