What are the safety measures to be considered in deep-sea fishing?

Yo, just got a quick question that's been bugging me. Been thinkin' 'bout going deep-sea fishing, y'know? But heard it could be a bit risky if you don't know what you're doing. So was wondering, what kind of safety measures should someone keep in mind when they're out there? Like, do we need special gear or is there something we shouldn't do? Any advice or tips are much appreciated, cheers!

Well, deep-sea fishing definitely comes with its unique set of challenges. For a fresher, I would recommend going out with a seasoned guide or with a group that knows the ropes. This way they can help you get used to the equipment and give you tips on how to handle the unexpected. And remember, safety first!

Absolutely, you gotta respect the sea, mate! And always keep an eye on the weather, it can turn in an instant. Stay sharp out there!

Yeah, the sea's a tricky one. Also, don't forget about the marine life you might encounter out there. Got any experiences dealing with that? How do you deal with a curious shark or an excited marlin when you're out in the deep blue?

That's a good point about the marine life, can't predict how they'll react. Here's a thought, how do we handle communication out there? Radios? Signals? What if someone falls overboard, what's the procedure? This stuff isn’t covered in the usual training, but it seems pretty important, right?

I've heard some folks use a buddy system, especially when they're new to it. Like you're sort of watching each other's back out there, you know? Thoughts on this, anyone?

For sure, a buddy system is solid, but also, let's not overlook the essentials—like a life jacket for each person and a lifeline system to secure everyone. It's all about preparing for the worst while hoping for the best out there.
