The Atlantic otter trawl is a large conical bag of netting that is drawn over the ocean floor by a vessel known as a trawler or dragger. The mouth of the net is held open by buoys on the upper edge and weights on the lower and by boards fastened to each side of the net. As the trawl is towed through the water the boards flare apart with the pressure of the water.
