An academy has been established in the UAE emirate of Fujairah to educate in methods of ethical fishing. It will promote good fishing practices based on using such materials that do not injure the fish allowing them to be returned safely to the sea.
Special fishing equipment is used for this type of fishing where the bait is made from artificial material. This can take the form of a fly and when taken by the fish does not cause injuries leading to death or injury.
This type of fishing is aimed at the recreational sector and will protect the various declining species of fish in the Arabian Gulf and Oman Sea. It is a good way to promote ethical fishing for beginners and amateurs.
