I wonder if 10 years ago we might have described this as ‘trolling’ rather than ‘trawling’, but can’t now because that means something completely different.
I read a sci fi book featuring a seafaring species that gathered small fish by trolling recently. It mentioned ‘their trolling’ far too much to be taken seriously in any way

Sums up a lot.
PARTHIV PATEL IS ABOUT TO HAVE HIS 31ST BIRTHDAY.
HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?
WHO ALLOWED THIS TO HAPPEN?
WHOSE CRUMMY IDEA WAS THIS?
I honestly thought he was about 22. Maybe 24, tops.
THIRTY-FIRST BIRTHDAY.
Good grief.
And what did I do with all the years? Gaah.

Makes for an interesting article.
McCullum’s going out the way you’d expect, at least.
with all them battings and cricket hittings
