Deep-sea fishing is the activity of hunting for fish and other aquatic animals in the deep seas. Deep-sea fishing is an ancient practice performed all over the world for the purpose of catching fish for food. Deep-sea fishing can be done with many techniques and traditions. Modern technological developments help in deep-sea fishing by providing appropriate tools and equipment to fish. Traditionally, methods like spear-and-bow fishing, fishing nets and fishing lines were common. But nowadays rods and bait are mostly used for deep-sea fishing. Lots of people are going in for recreational fishing. Therefore deep-sea fishing charters and trips have become very popular holiday ideas. For deep-sea fishing, one must go to those areas of ocean which are deep. Incidentally, the deep seas have visibility levels up to only few hundred meters below the water, so almost 90% of the ocean below is invisible. Not only this, the deep sea has pressures between 20 and 1,000 atmospheres and often, the temperature ranges between 3 and 10 degrees Celsius with considerable lack of oxygen. Fish of the deep sea are known to be elusive and odd-looking, with extremely large eyes and long feelers. They live almost without natural illumination and cannot rely much on their eyesight for catching their prey. Some well-known deep-sea fish are grouper, snapper, kingfish, cobia, tuna, amberjack, Spanish mackerel, dolphin, barracuda, tarpon, permit, mahi, giant red fish, wahoo, dorado, tuna, trevally, black marlin, sailfish and several species of shark. Deep-sea fishing can be done on boats large enough to carry a family or a group. It will have a fishing deck area and enough comforts for a day's trip. They are mostly fitted with diesel engines. One must get a deep-sea fishing license, if required by law. Boats charge anywhere from $200 to $1,200 for such deep-sea fishing trips. But check out the weather conditions and fishing regulations of your area before proceeding.
