CA 2168521

A gill net includes multiple sections dyed different colors. Fish (28) avoid sections of the net that are more visible and swim into one or more other sections of the net that are less visible in water. In a first embodiment (10) of the multi-colored net, an upper section (22) is colored to be visible to fish in water. A middle section of the net (24) is colored to generally blend with the water, while a lower section (26) is also colored to be visible to the fish. Different color schemes are used in other embodiments of the gill net. Fish attempting to swim over or under the sections of the net that are more visible become entrapped in the meshwithin the section of the net that is less visible. Spaced-apart floats (16) aredisposed along the top edge of the gill net, and a lead line (20) is threaded through the lower edge of the gill net to insure its vertical orientation in the water.
