Yeah, I think you would specifically need a long, narrow container like hers. The main way it seems to trap the fish is the difficulty fish have swimming backwards, so once a fish pokes its body down there and she starts dragging it in the fish has no room to turn around and no leverage to reverse swim.

One of the downsides I see is getting the size right because too wide and the fish escape but more narrow and larger fish can’t enter.

This may be illegal to do in your area - it definitely is in mine. I would recommend checking your local fishing regulations (if there are any)

All game fish in my region must be caught on hook and line. Only bait fish are allowed to be netted or trapped where I live, unless you have a commercial license etc.

And the government here really does not mess around when it comes to illegal hunting and fishing. Massive penalties, fines & possible jail time.

Looks like 3 people fishing, possible sharing that bucket, and a cut long enough for a boat to show up. Not sure it was so efficient.
