You can in fact control what you catch with a gillnet by varying the size of the web. A larger size would allow some fish to swim through etc. In BC fishermen will change nets depending on what they are fishing for. So it is possible to be responsible and sustainable!

Oh, someone who is going to educate me on fishing...lol.

Gill nets placed as you speak above at certain depths where really only one or two species of fish hang out is a good cause.

But nets placed here in Mexico where literally hundreds of species of fish roam and many not having a paying market or edible leaves untold and unnecessary fish kill.

PERIOD!

How do fish die in a gill net? [from google]

Stress levels continued to rise the longer the fish were in the net, even after 12 hours. 28% of the fish died in the net, probably from suffocation caused by constriction of the gills. Another 16% died following release, having incurred open wounds.
