What is another word for trawlers?
Pronunciation: [tɹˈɔːləz] (IPA) 
Trawlers are fishing vessels designed to drag large nets through the ocean to catch fish. Some synonyms for trawlers include draggers, bottom trawlers, and pelagic trawlers. Draggers are vessels that work primarily with bottom trawling techniques to catch species that live and dwell on the sea floor. Bottom trawlers use large, cone-shaped nets to skim the ocean floor, capturing everything in their path. Pelagic trawlers, on the other hand, use nets to catch oceanic species that swim in the open water. Regardless of the type of trawler, these fishing boats are essential for providing seafood to millions of people around the world.
