Fixed-net fishing is a method of fishing in which large nets are fixed in the path of fish and are guided to the depths of the fish. It is also called ``waiting fishing'' because it reads the habits of migrating fish and sets the net in a fixed position so that the fish will naturally enter. The fish that fall into the net vary depending on the season. In Kumano, you can find yellowtail, sardines, horse mackerel, mackerel, squid, tuna, sea bream, and sometimes rare visitors such as spiny lobster, rays, turtles, and sunfish.
