Gillnet: A Fishing Gear Harvesting Aquatic Species in Saltwater and Freshwater

Kartik Stevens

Gillnets are one of the most important fishing tools in the world for catching a variety of species both in saltwater and freshwater. Gillnets are effective at catching many different species, and they are clearly length picky. Gillnets, on the other hand, have limited species selection and occasionally capture non-target species, birds, and species of the megafauna, which includes cetaceans, turtles, and sharks. The practise of “ghost fishing,” when fishermen continue to fish despite lost gillnets, wastes valuable resources. This study discusses the basic components of a gillnet, it’s fishing methods, and offers perspectives on selectivity, efficiency, and related conservation concerns.
