Thank you for posting  that a lovely watch of a place that holds very dear memories to me 

A world that now , no longer exists 

our very own @jukel123used to partake in that style of fishing 

No mate that system is called stake net fishing.

I still fish with a haaf net. Which is basically holding a three legged construction with a net attached and waiting for salmon and sea trout to hit the net.

There’s was a thing on the local tv many moons ago about the last salmon angler on the Severn that used to go out and net salmon like that out of lydney quite funny as they kept emphasising how you have to respect the river and the knowledge was dying out blah blah blah and at the end of the show an epitaph came on screen for the old boy who,d drowned just after making the show lol
