dipnet
Handheld fish catcher
A dipnet is a small fishing net attached to a handle, used to scoop fish from the water rather than cast or drag.
Anglers use dipnets to land fish already on a line, or to catch baitfish and smelt in shallow water: He scooped the trout into the dipnet.
As a verb, to dipnet is to fish with such a net.
