Electrofishing. Scientists carrying out a population and species survey using electrofishing equipment. Electrofishing is a fishing technique that uses direct current electricity flowing between a submerged cathode and anode. This affects the movements of nearby fish so that they swim toward the anode, where they can be caught or stunned.
Electric pulse fishing is a fishing technique sometimes used in trawl fisheries which produces a limited electric field above the seabed to catch fish. [ 1] The pulse trawl gear consists of a number of electrodes, attached to the gear in the tow direction, that emit short electric pulses. The electrodes replace the tickler chains that are used ...

Basnig - a traditional method of fishing in the Philippines that combines the use of bag nets and attracting fish with high-powered lamps. Specialized outrigger boats known as basnigan are used.
The board has hired Carp Solutions, established in 2015 as a University of Minnesota start-up, to conduct three days of electrofishing, capturing carp, marking them and tagging them before ...
Electric fishing. Electric fishing can refer to one of two methods of fishing: Electrofishing, used to draw fish to an anode to be captured. Electric pulse fishing, where an electric pulse is generated above the sea bed to disturb fish to be captured.
The jigger consists of a slotted wooded board that floats under the ice surface and two levers connected in such a way that when a rope connected to one lever (arm) is pulled, the second lever (leg) jabs into the ice and pushes against the ice to move the board in the direction opposite to the rope pull. After each pull a spring resets the arm ...
Seine fishing (or seine-haul fishing; / seɪn / SAYN) is a method of fishing that employs a surrounding net, called a seine, that hangs vertically in the water with its bottom edge held down by weights and its top edge buoyed by floats. Seine nets can be deployed from the shore as a beach seine, or from a boat.
Multifilament fishing line. Multifilament line, also referred to as The Super Lines, is a type of fishing line. [1] It is a braided line which is made up of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), a specialty polyethylene polymer that makes an extremely thin line for its strength. By weight, UHMWPE strands are five to ten times ...
