Why should underwater hunters seek remote areas?

Seeking remote areas is advantageous for underwater hunters primarily because it helps to lessen the impact on the breeding stock of marine life. In less populated and less frequently fished areas, the fish populations are often healthier and more abundant. This allows for sustainable hunting practices that do not significantly disrupt the ecosystem or reduce the overall population of fish, especially during critical breeding periods.

By choosing remote locations, hunters contribute to the preservation of marine life, allowing species to reproduce and thrive without excessive pressure from fishing. This practice promotes healthier marine ecosystems in the long run, making it more beneficial for both the hunters and the environment.

While avoiding other hunters, having a better chance of catching large fish, or enjoying better visibility might be considered benefits, they do not directly contribute to the sustainability and health of fish populations in the same way that reducing impact on breeding stocks does. Therefore, the emphasis on conservation and responsible hunting practices by selecting less-fished areas is crucial in maintaining marine biodiversity.
