Common fishing hazards come in two forms (i) water hazzards and (ii) equipment hazzards.

Water Hazzards:

When fishing water saftey is of prime importance. If fishing in a boat always wear a life jacket. Know how to handle your boat and know the water you are fishing. Also beware of currents that could drag you under and the boat off course. Hypothermia is a very real threat in the spring and in the fall. Monitor the weather carefully when fishing.

Equipment hazzards:

The bigges equipment hazzard is getting hooked. When deeply hooked medical treatment may be required because the barbs on the hooks ensure tht the hook will not come out easily. The fishing line (especailly modern braided supper lines) can cut deeply.

Two expereinced fisherman drowned in Montreal this spring when thier canoe capsized when the weather changed suddenly. They were both wearing life jackets but died of hypothermia.

Is a common hazard of commercial fishing A low water table High biodiversity Worker injury Growth in fish populations?

A common hazard of commercial fishing is worker injury. Fishermen are often exposed to dangerous conditions, such as rough seas, heavy equipment, and the risk of slips and falls on slippery decks. While low water tables and biodiversity can impact fishing activities, they are not direct hazards like the physical risks faced by workers. Growth in fish populations, on the other hand, is generally considered a positive aspect of sustainable fishing practices.
