This dive was specifically to collect fishing line as it is a constant problem in our area where local fisherman still line fish from the coral reef tops. We have found it safer and easier to dedicate 1 dive to just tackling fishing line and take wooden blocks to wrap the fishing line and hooks around keeping divers safe from entanglement.
