摘要
Worldwide, the gillnet is one of the most important fishing gears for harvesting a variety of species in the sea and in freshwater Gillnets are efficient, catching a diverse range of species, an dare highly size selective. However, gillnets have limited species selectivity and sometimes catch non-target species; birds, and megafauna called "ghostfishing", wasting valuable resources. This paper describes basic components of a gillnet and its fishing mechanisms and reviews catch efficiency, selectivity and related conservation issues.
