ring net

ring net
a modified lampara net with purse rings operated by two vessels (a lampara net is similar to, but much smaller than, a purse seine with no pursing action used for catching schools of small fish attracted to lights, e.g. anchovy and pilchard. There is a central spoon-shaped section and two lateral wings and the net is usually operated from a small boat. The rapid retrieval of the lead line does close the bottom of the net but it is not a true purse)
