oyster fishing
Oyster fishing involves harvesting oysters from their natural habitats or aquaculture farms. Fishers typically use dredges or tongs to collect the oysters from the seabed, often by towing equipment behind boats or hand-collecting in shallow areas. The process requires knowledge of oyster beds and water conditions to ensure sustainable harvesting. Oysters are valued both as a delicacy and for their ecological role in filtering water. Proper regulation and management help preserve oyster populations and marine environments while supporting commercial and recreational harvesting activities.
