The drum seine uses a horizontal mounted drum to haul and store the net instead of a power block. The net is pulled in over a roller, which spans the stern, and then passes through a spooling gear with upright rollers. The spooling gear is moved from side to side across the stern[, ] which allows the net to be guided and wound tightly on the drum. 2, record 2, English, - drum%20seine
