Fishing Nets for Southeast Asia Coastal Markets
Southeast Asia buyers often need practical gill nets, trammel nets, floats, lead sinkers and mixed specifications for resale.

Popular net types for Southeast Asia
Southeast Asian markets predominantly use trammel nets and gill nets for coastal and inshore fishing. Three-layer trammel nets in 50m lengths are popular in Indonesia, Philippines and Vietnam for mixed species fishing. Single-layer gill nets are commonly used in Thailand and Malaysia for targeted species like mackerel and seabass.
Mesh size preferences by country
Indonesian fishermen typically use 2指 to 3.5指 mesh for general fishing. Philippine buyers often request 1.5指 to 2.5指 for smaller inshore species. Vietnamese markets favor 2指 to 4指 for their diverse coastal fisheries. Thai customers commonly order 2.5指 to 3.5指 mesh for commercial operations.
Adapting to local conditions
Southeast Asian waters range from shallow estuaries to deep offshore areas. Nets should be selected based on local water depth, target species and vessel size. Most regional buyers prefer nylon material for its balance of strength and affordability. Rubber-coated nets are gaining popularity for rocky fishing grounds.
