With the advent of reliable and accurate position-locating systems,
fragile ecosystems, such as seamounts and humps, have received
increased fishing pressure in recent years. It is important to
remember these areas are prone to overfishing, and must be
protected and regulated.
In addition, there is unwritten protocol to fishing these areas, when
many boats are fishing the same, relatively small spot. Due to the
fact that many anglers fish their baits very far behind the boat, cutoffs
are frequent. Fishermen must recognize that in order to effectively
fish these deepwater oases, they must be courteous to other boaters.
There are many undiscovered seamounts and humps worldwide,
and chances are that there may be an excellent, untapped spot within
your fishing locale.
Every day fishermen are discovering new waters to fish, taking
pressure off the well-known, regularly fished spots, and opening up
entire new areas to the excitement of fishing a previously unknown
area, a biologically diverse, unique micro-ecosystem known as a
seamount.
