Fisheries And Ocean Fresh Seafood

By Connie Sears


Ocean Fresh Seafood is a favorite amongst most people. There is nothing like fresh crab, whiting, shrimp, bass and scallops served at marina restaurants. Professional fishermen also sell to super stores and seafood markets, restaurants and packagers.

High in nutrients, fish is a great food to add to any meal. Doctors and nutritionists suggest fish and seafood for its natural protein, and omega 3 acids. These may prevent or correct diseases, such as heart disease, and Alzheimer's, and promotes a healthy lifestyle. Today fish is not only known for satisfying taste-buds, but also as a health addition. This is another reason the fishing industry is such a money maker.

Fishing is not just for promoting good health. Open ocean and sea fishing is also a sport, and those who participate want to experience fishing in the open seas and raw nature environment. As such, many are offered this experience through dockside restaurant angler fishermen, who catch fish for the restaurant daily. Some have turned their boats into not only a fish catching enterprise, but also an adventure ship for restaurant patrons.

Excursions begin in early morning and last until mid afternoon normally. Many are fishing for sea bass, flounder, tautog, and bluefish, while others search for tile-fish, black bellied rose fish, swordfish and tuna. Different bodies of water will contain different fish. Different kinds of fishing trips are available. Some take place 15-20 miles off the coast, while others are 40-80 miles offshore. Depth of water for normal fishing trips is 70-120 feet of water, while others are 120-800 feet in depth.

Marinas and docks aren't the only ones offering deep sea fishing trips. Angling trips are a thriving business in any ocean body of water. Angling involves fishing rods, and bait. Angling is a type of recreational fishing, but is also used at times commercially. Different types of catch will also require different methods of fishing. For instance, those fishing for tuna, or other large fish, will not only need a rod. They will need a sea rod, or down-tide rods. There should be 30-50 pounds of line.

Some fishing excursions will also take place over reefs, especially if fishing for larger fish, like cod. Sea captains oversee trips and give sport fisherman the experience of a lifetime on the open ocean waters. Some trips also include deep drop fishing, which is less common, but also allows for catching bottom fish.

Some marinas and also used cruisers for nature and dinner cruises. Scenic cruises offer succulent seafood suppers, and fancy drinks. Many such cruises, cruise coastlines near sunset and allow guests to observe the beauty of a sunset encapsulated in the ocean below. Other nature excursions, go into the open ocean and allow for pictures of dolphins diving in their natural habitat, or pictures of the oceans untold beauty.

There is nothing like ocean fresh seafood no matter where it is being served. A simple meal can be turned into a nutritious delicacy when adding fresh fish. There is no food that compares to fresh seafood.
