1.Andang jarang (bottom set gill net)
     The gear is made from monofilament or nylon (PA) material with mesh size ranging from 51 to 76 mm. The gear is also fitted with floats and sinkers to stay vertical at the bottom of the river or sea. It is usually operated by one or two fishers on board an outboard motor boat along the coastal areas (see Figure 14). The soaking time is from six to eight hours. The catch usually consists of pony fish, hard-tail scads, croakers, etc.
