A trawl design feature is the cutting of upper and lower panels in the shape of pairs of unequal trapeziums, in the course of joining which along the panel center-line a sideward deviation of wings occurs, which allows increasing a horizontal opening of the trawl. The cutting of wings along the fish lines according to negative cycle ensures tight application of the ground line to the ground surface in the process of trawling.
