  The present invention relates to a fish collecting tool and a fish collecting method, and more particularly to a fish collecting tool and a fish collecting method that can enhance the fish collecting effect as compared with conventional fishing methods such as stationary net fishing, stabbed net fishing, rod catching fishing, and cage net fishing.

  Fishing methods such as stationary net fishing, stabbed net fishing, rod catching fishing, and cage net fishing are fishing methods in which a fishing net is installed on the course of a school of fish. The location where the fishing net is installed largely depends on the experience and sea conditions, and the amount of catch varies depending on the location where the fishing net is installed and the season. These fishing methods are to wait for fish to come in and enter the net, and the stability as fishing methods is low, and a constant catch is not always expected.

  On the other hand, conventionally, various proposals have been made to use light to enhance the fish collection effect and improve fishing. For example, the following Patent Document 1 discloses a fishlight device using an LED that can effectively and efficiently irradiate the sea surface and enables high catch according to various fishery conditions when the LED is used as a light source of the fishlight. A structure is proposed in which a plurality of fish-collecting lights are arranged in parallel on both outer sides of the hull, and the support mechanism unit can be rotated and moved up and down.

  Moreover, in patent document 2, the structure which provided the reflecting plate in the inner surface of the umbrella-shaped cover cap and the light source room bottom as what can form the optimal illuminance area in the swimming layer area of a fish in the donut shape around an underwater fish collection lamp Has proposed.
