Over fishing is one of the few problems we have in the ocean currently. One of the ways we over fish is through the use of trawl nets. When the net us dragging across the bottom of the ocean in hopes of catching shrimp, the shrimp is not the only thing getting caught. Along with shrimps we catch a surprisingly overwhelming number of fish as well. We catch more fish than actual shrimp.When brought onto the fish the fisherman inspect what they have captured and even if dead they return the fish into the ocean. This is killing a variety of fish that should of been caught only for the hopes in catching shrimp. Ways we can help stop over fishing is by supporting our politicians to make the right choice.
