1. Portable Lift Net

     The structure of this is simple, neat and easy to make. The gear is used with non-powered boats or outboard powered boats with engines of 6 - 12 Hp and the fishing grounds are mainly in the near-shore waters catching high value species like babylonia, crab, swimming crab, lobster etc. The structure of the gear consists of one steel frame with a diameter of 40 - 60 cm and there are 3 or 4 lines attached to the frame to facilitate the setting and hauling of the gear. A netting of nylon monofilament or multifilament with mesh size of 40 - 80 mm is hung on the frame on which there is a component of setting baits.

    Such a lift net can be set independently or linked to form a line with intervals of 8 - 12 m.
