fishing fleets
Commercial vessel squadrons
Fishing fleets are groups of fishing vessels operating together or from the same port or nation.
The term can describe boats owned by a single company or the collective fishing capacity of an entire country: Japan's fishing fleet, the New England fishing fleet.
Fleet implies coordinated or large-scale commercial fishing rather than individual sport fishing.
