Tuna Cage Nets Purse Seine Fishing

IKNAS Premium Heavy-Duty Tuna Purse Seine Net

IKNAS provides the professional-grade Tuna Purse Seine Net manufactured with high-strength, tear-resistant nylon.

Engineered for extreme high-tension ocean harvesting, this specialized net is designed to withstand the massive kinetic force generated by fully loaded schools of bluefin, yellowfin, and skipjack tuna. Available in both braided knotted and knotless options, the 100 mm full mesh weave smoothly glides through the upper water column without collapsing or catching heavy ocean currents, allowing massive vessels to successfully encircle and trap large pelagic schools above the thermocline.

Specifications

  • Primary Use: Commercial tuna purse seining and large-scale pelagic harvesting

  • Material: 100% High-Strength Premium Nylon

  • Weave Type: Braided knotted or knotless construction

  • Color Options: Black or White

  • Mesh Size: 100 mm full stretched mesh

  • Target Depth: Optimized for the mixing zone (typically less than 150 meters deep)

Key Benefits

  • Massive Burst Strength: The thick nylon filaments are custom-treated to maintain heavy tensile memory. This prevents massive schools of yellowfin or bigeye tuna from ballooning the pocket and ripping through the mesh grid during the final brailing and drying-up process.

  • Rapid Ocean Sink Rate: The dense nylon filaments, combined with heavy bottom leadlines or chain purse rings, drop rapidly into the water column (handling sets in 4 to 8 minutes). This prevents fast-swimming schools from escaping beneath the net before the bottom is winched shut.

  • Knotless Friction Reduction: If choosing the knotless option, the smooth, balanced knitted construction minimizes net friction as it is hauled over heavy power blocks, drastically extending the service life of the mesh.

  • Targeted Surface Harvesting: The 100 mm grid prevents juvenile fish or small non-target species from getting trapped, targeting surface-feeding adults and ensuring continuous marine balance.

Applications

  • Industrial Tuna Seiners: Ideal for heavy-duty ocean vessels (45 m to 110 m) harvesting large bulk volumes of tuna into refrigerated brine freezing wells.

  • Artisanal Coastal Fishing: Perfect for smaller multi-purpose boats (20 m to 50 m) seasonally targeting smaller tuna-like fish, frigate tunas, sardines, and anchovies.
