You're right!
The answer is shrimp.
Fast Fact
Because shrimp are so small, the mesh on the nets that catch them must be small too. This makes accidental capture of other fish in the nets all too common.

The answer is hook-and-line.
Fast Fact
In hook-and-line fishing, lines are reeled in soon after a fish takes the bait. This gives fishermen a chance to quickly release unwanted catch from their hooks.

The answer is tilapia.
Fast Fact
Fish farming can be done responsibly but not all fish farms are created equal. It's best to choose farmed fish that are omnivores, rather than carnivores. Because carnivores eat food that's made from wild fish, farming these carnivores actually increases pressure on wild fisheries.
