El Nino reduces upwelling. Normal sea surface temperatures in Pacific tend to be warmer in the west because of upwelling, where warm water flows west because of trade winds and colder water rises up to replace the warm water in the Eastern Pacific. During El Nino, the trade winds get all screwed up and warm water is spread out more evenly in the Pacific. So there is less upwelling and the Eastern Pacific sees warmer sea water.

When is upwelling weaker during a normal pattern El Niño or La Nina event?
Upwelling is weaker during a normal pattern El Niño event. This is because El Niño brings warmer sea surface temperatures, which suppress the nutrient-rich cold water that drives upwelling along the coast. In contrast, La Niña events typically enhance upwelling due to cooler sea surface temperatures.

Why is the warm weather condition of El Nino not good for the fishermen?
Under normal conditions, upwelling at the equatorial Pacific brings up nutrients from the deep ocean, which ultimate provides food for fish. During El Nino, this upwelling is reduced or even reversed, leading to fewer nutrients and thus, fewer fish.
