Trap Net

Trap net (lambaklad, Tagalog; oto-shiami, chuko-ami, mam-ami, and daibo-ami, Japanese) is a kind of net, set in deep coastal waters, fixed by anchors to the sea bottom and buoyed by floats at the surface. It is provided with a "leader" or "guide" set across the natural path of the fish migration guiding schools of fish into the playground and then to the "catching pound" or brail part where it is finally concentrated.
