net and coble

net and coble
a beach seine used in Scotland for salmon. The coble is a small, flat-bottomed open boat which may be rowed or under power, used to set the net by paying it out as the boat sweeps round in a circle. The net must be kept in motion while being payed out to surround the fish and bring them into shore. Other restrictions apply in this method of salmon fishing (no stones can be thrown to scare fish into the net and no other nets can be used in conjunction)
