"Fishing boat" is just a sarcastic joke meaning "harmless", which is to mock the western propaganda of Chinese "menacing, aggression and threat".
Same joke is nickname for China being "rabbit" against American eagle.
Any new jokes can be invented following the same line of logic.

The fishnet thing is a running gag among Chinese military/defense related forum. It's basically a comical counter against the so-called "China Threat Theory" that's popular among WASP nations. So basically, an example would be:

A WASP nation like Australia reacts to Chinese amphibian task force fleet visiting Australia port like: "OMG, the communist invaders are at our doorsteps!"

Chinese people reply: "calm down, that's just some high-tech fishing boats we build! Don't be a chicken!"

And this running joke pretty permeates to every thing military in China:

J-20 is just a large agricultural drone for spraying pesticides for our Chinese crops.
ZTZ-99 is just an agricultural tractor for plowing our Chinese rice field.
055 is just a high-tech ocean fishing boat for catching fishes deep in the middle of the Pacific.
001, 002, and 003 are just a large whalers. (oops, the Aussies will be double pissed at this one!)

Fish usually refers to sub. Big black fish means nuclear sub.

Fishnet would be hint of ASW to me. The fishnet with the crane is a joke of ”caught one!"
