20th September 2020 Fathoms Free volunteer divers supported by the Atlantic Scuba RIB 'Stingray' recovered 5 lobster pots and their associated rope from the popular dive site in the Carrick Roads, Falmoth known as East Narrows.

This is the Eastern wall of the deep water channel, meaning that some of the pots were close to 30metres underwater - a great effort by everybody

Fathoms Free is a group of volunteer divers who protect marine wildlife and the environment for everyone's benefit by removing ALDFG (abandoned, lost, or otherwise discarded fishing gear) and other marine debris from the coastal waters of Cornwall and Devon.

ALDFG is also known as ghost gear or ghost fishing gear, as it continues to "fish," entangling, trapping, and killing wildlife indiscriminately. These trapped animals will die and act as bait, attracting more wildlife in a vicious cycle of death until the ghost gear is removed from the environment.
