Deep sea fishing is becoming more accessible with technological advances and more attractive as global fish stocks decline. Most commercial fish come from the shallow seas of the continental shelves or the surface water of the open oceans. Deep sea fishing involves fishing below 1,000 feet. Deep sea regulation inside each country's 200 mile ...
Commercial fishing showing the abundance of fish species caught using a trawling method. Unsustainable fishing methods refers to the use of various fishing methods to capture or harvest fish at a rate that is unsustainable for fish populations. [1] These methods facilitate destructive fishing practices that damage ocean ecosystems, resulting in ...

Overfishing led to increased competition, and over time coastal waters became restricted to municipal fishing for local use and smaller vessels.
Jack mackerel caught by a Chilean purse seiner Fishing down the food web. Overfishing is the removal of a species of fish (i.e. fishing) from a body of water at a rate greater than that the species can replenish its population naturally (i.e. the overexploitation of the fishery's existing fish stock), resulting in the species becoming increasingly underpopulated in that area.
This is likely to further aggravate the problem of overfishing, unless aquaculture technology expands to meet the needs of human population. Overfishing has depleted some fish populations to the point that large scale commercial fishing, on average around the world, is not economically viable without government assistance. Many states offer ...
