"Vigfússon and the NASF have offered to support the Irish government and there is now an urgent need to ensure that Ireland’s ban on driftnets is properly policed, that driftnets are not replaced by draft nets"

Explanation:
je pense que "driftnet" correspond au filet droit dérivant ou flottant alors que "draftnet" serait le fillet tournant, en forme de sac, tiré par un bateau.

draft net fishing
pêche à la senne


Explanation:
ou pêche à la seine. Senne ou seine sans autre précision sont des termes génériques.

Draft nets, which may also be known as seine nets, are fished in a number of locations. They consist of a single sheet of netting, the bottom of which is weighted and the top is equipped with floats. One end is secured on the bank and the other is fed out from a boat. The boat returns to the same bank without stopping or delay. The idea is to enclose an area of water between these two points. Any fish in this area are then caught when the net is retrieved.
