The invention belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles, and particularly relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle for net casting. The unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a net casting assembly, a lifting mechanism assembly, an unmanned aerial vehicle main body, cover buckle assemblies and a fishing net assembly, the upper part of the net casting assembly is connected with the lower part of the unmanned aerial vehicle main body, and the lifting mechanism assembly is connected to the outer side of the net casting assembly. The number of the cover buckle assemblies is three, the three cover buckle assemblies are movably connected with the lower portion of the lifting mechanism assembly, and the fishing net assembly is arranged on the lower portion of the net casting assembly. The net casting assembly comprises a first net casting main frame body, a first connecting piece, a circular ring sliding rail and a circular ring sliding block. According to the invention, the problemthat the net cannot be completely scattered during net casting in the prior art, the sinking speed is low, the automatic net drawing cannot be realized, after the net drawing is completed, the whole net cannot float up to the water surface, and the like are solved. The invention further provides a using method of the unmanned aerial vehicle for net casting, the method is simple and convenient, theoperation of operators is facilitated, and the operators can quickly master the operation method.
