    Fishfinders were derived from fathometers, active sonar instruments used for navigation and safety to determine the depth of water. [1] The fathom is a unit of water depth, from which the instrument gets its name. The fathometer is an echo sounding system for measurement of water depth. A fathometer will display water depth and can make an ...

    Red and blue king crab can be found between the intertidal zone and a depth of 100 fathoms (600 ft; 180 m). Golden king crab live in depths between 100 and 400 fathoms (180–720 m, 600–2400 ft).

  8. Catch and release - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catch_and_release

Most deep sea fish species suffer from the sudden pressure change when wound to the surface from great depths; these species cannot adjust their body's physiology quickly enough to follow the pressure change. The result is called "barotrauma

  9. Spearfishing - Wikipedia

    Usually shore divers hunt at depths of 5–25 metres (16–82 ft), depending on location. In some locations, divers can experience drop-offs from 5 to 40 metres (16 to 131 ft) close to the shore line. Sharks and reef fish can be abundant in these locations. In subtropical areas, sharks may be less common, but other challenges face the shore ...
