Wetlands are crucial to fisheries because they serve as vital breeding and nursery grounds for many fish species, providing shelter and abundant food sources for juvenile fish. They help maintain water quality by filtering pollutants and sediments, which supports healthier aquatic ecosystems. Additionally, wetlands contribute to biodiversity, supporting a variety of species that interact within the food web, ultimately enhancing fish populations. The preservation of wetlands is essential for sustaining both commercial and recreational fisheries.
