trawl net
Boat-pulled fishing gear
A trawl net is a large, funnel-shaped fishing net designed to be dragged along the sea floor or through open water behind a boat.
The wide mouth captures fish as the vessel moves, funneling them toward the narrow closed end.
Trawl nets are the primary gear in commercial trawling operations: The trawl net came up heavy with cod.
