The scientists say the common way called longline fishing is especially harmful to large fish．This way includes many fishing lines that are connected to one boat．If these lines are joined together，they can reach one hundred kilometers．They hold thousands of sharp metal hooks to catch fish．Longline fishing is especially common in the Japanese fishing industry．Records show that Japanese boats used to catch about ten fish for every hundred hooks．The study says longline fishing boats now might catch one fish per hundred hooks．
