Hooks, Nets, and Entire Schools of Fish
Longliners use kilometres of mainline fitted with hundreds or thousands of baited hooks. They are commonly used in deep offshore waters and can remain at sea for months with on-board freezing systems.
Purse seiners target schooling fish by surrounding them with a large net and closing its bottom like a drawstring. Together with trawlers and longliners, they represent the core vessel types used in modern commercial fishing.
