Trawl Technology

Trawl technology refers to methods used in fishing where a large net, called a trawl, is dragged through the water behind a boat to catch fish or other marine animals. Modern trawl systems often include advanced equipment like sonar and GPS to locate schools of fish accurately. They can be designed to target specific species and reduce bycatch (unintended catches). Some trawl nets are also equipped with devices to minimize environmental impact, such as grid systems that allow smaller or non-target species to escape. Overall, trawl technology combines traditional fishing practices with modern innovations for efficiency and sustainability.
