English term or phrase: shoulders
As trawl nets differ greatly in performance, we will examine the effects of minimum mesh sizes on three main types of bottom trawl: multi-species bottom trawls; bottom trawls for pelagic species; and shrimp trawls. Note that in each case the minimum mesh size applies to the bag and cod end only. The meshes in the wings, square and ***shoulders are much larger.

neutral  Marion Feildel (X): "ailes supérieures" would be "upper wings". // Si c'est la même chose, wing et shoulder, pourquoi employer deux mots différents, et dans la même phrase ?
