This is why you just shoot them in the head with a harpoon when you take them out of the water

Most fish are caught using trawling nets, which as far as I know, can be up to 50 miles long. Gonna need a fucking attack helicopter to handle all that.

can be up to 50 miles long

I think maybe this should be meters?

World's largest net. So big it can cover New York City and still have room for some of Jersey.

Now that's a job of the future - commandeering a Boeing AH-64E Apache to pulverise several thousand tonnes of fish trapped in a trawling net. Isn't nature beautiful?
