Offshore+fishers

Offshore fishers are fishers that fish in deeper water, away from the shore. They usually use bigger nets, boats and catch bigger fish than Inshore fishers. They use more technology, such as using sound waves to find large amounts of fish, or using big nets and dragging them along as the boat moves, so fish gets trapped in. There are more offshore fishers now, and that's why the cod population in canada has decreased a lot.
