Question

what are the advantages and disadvantages of using trawlers for fishing?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

advantage

Trawler, fishing vessel that uses a trawl, a conical net that snares fish by being dragged through the water or along the bottom. Trawlers vary according to the method of towing the net. On side trawlers, the trawl is set and hauled over the side with power winches or manually by a large crew.

disadvantaged

In some fisheries the catch is pretty “clean.” But in many, more than half of what trawls catch is unwanted. Virtually all of a trawl's catch comes up dead or fatally injured, and if it's unwanted it's just shoveled back. Shrimp fishing can be some of the worst, because small mesh also catches small fish.
