Palau Sport Fishing Association Installs a 5th FAD

In accordance with its goal of attracting more Palauans to sport fishing and in light of the current coronavirus pandemic the Palau Sport Fishing Association (PSFA) deployed a new Fish Aggregation Device (FAD) in their network of FADs.

PSFA board member Stomu Olebuu said “we try every year to deploy a FAD but the expenses are high for our little group. Just the tug boat expenses of about $3,500, specialized rope expenses of about $5,000 the hours of manpower, materials it can cost up to $17,500 for one deployment. But PSFA has been deploying off shore FADs, consistently since 2007 because Surangel donates their tug boat and NECO Yamaha donated staff time, boats and materials. Nevermind the time and effort many individual fisherman take to maintain and keep tabs on the FAD network.” Read more.
