[…] au-dessous de la ralingue de plombs, la senne coulissante est équipée d'une série d'anneaux de coulisse en métal espacés à intervalles réguliers. En halant vers l'intérieur la coulisse qui passe dans les anneaux, il est possible de fermer le bas de la senne (manœuvre appelée boursage), de façon que les poissons encerclés ne puissent pas s'échapper.
