While it is fun to go deep sea fishing and enjoy the thrill of reeling in the catch, that is, if you are lucky to get the big one, there is always the environmental issue. Fishes are depleting fast in our seas. It is when you are deep sea fishing that you realised that the commercialization of deep sea fishing is fast depleting our fish resources. The ocean and sea is an ecosystem by itself.

Many other living forms depends on the fishes for survival. If the fishes are gone, the big ones go hungry. The birds go hungry and so does the penguin (as depicted in the Flat feet movie). The corals and a whole lot of eco systems in the sea bed will suffer if man do not do conservation.

As part of our efforts to protect the seas, we asked all fishermen to release young fishes and for protected species, that, these be released back to the ocean. We hope that you will impart this knowledge to your children and grandchildren and also to the representatives of your government. Everyone of us can do our share to conserve the seas and protect the fishes and its environment.

Yes the environmental issue is very hot and sensitive issue.I myself have personally come across many times.I hate to see anglers catch small fish which are not nice to eat but they still leave it to die on the boat and then latter they throw it away.what a selfish and cruel act.Skipper must enforce the rules so as to keep this industry going for years to come.I know is difficult but we need to walk the talk...
