fishing practices

Fishing practices involve catching fish from oceans, lakes, and rivers using various methods. Common techniques include netting, where large nets are used to trap schools of fish; longlining, which uses extended lines with baited hooks; and trawling, where boats pull weighted nets through the water to capture fish. Sustainable practices focus on responsible harvesting, avoiding overfishing, and minimizing environmental impact, such as bycatch (unintended species caught). Proper management ensures fish populations remain healthy for future generations, balancing human needs with marine ecosystem health.
