brail
Small dipping net
Brail has two distinct meanings.
In sailing, brails are ropes used to gather and secure a sail, and to brail is to haul in a sail using these lines: They brailed the mainsail before the storm hit.
In fishing, a brail is a small net on a pole used to scoop fish from a larger net or tank into a container.
