Method of and apparatus for unconfined fish farming and the like

摘要

The invention is concerned with training fish, such as salmonoids and other varieties exhibiting similar growth habits and characteristics, to live and feed in concentrated vertical stacks under light-blocking covers contacting the water (floating upon or submerged, partly or totally), such that the fish need not be contained by nets, walls or other barriers in the sea or other water bodies; and then may be harvested or otherwise collected or even transported, when desired, by enclosing or sweeping the dark areas under the covers by nets or cages or the like, or transporting the covers, with the fish moving to stay in the dark areas thereunder, to an enclosed, netted or otherwise barriered area.
