Abandoned fishing nets: a silent danger

Abandoned nets catch without anyone asking them to. A silent danger to marine life and divers.

What abandoned nets are

Fishing nets that were lost or deliberately left in the sea. They continue to catch for years without a purpose.

Their danger to divers

Entanglement in them is a dangerous situation. Fins and wires can hold a diver in a difficult position.

What to do if you become entangled

• Do not panic and move the body randomly
• Use the dive knife with calm, calculated movements
• Ask your buddy for help with a clear signal

A dive knife is not for decoration but for these moments.
