Answer: Option D, trawling

All the options mentioned use large nets to catch the fishes, but the most commonly used method to harvest Atlantic cod is trawling. It is method of pulling the fishes through the net sent into the waters behind the boat. The net is thrown deep into the water and horizontally it collects all the fishes that are trapped in it.
