conservationists call it "ghost gear".

It includes Fishing nets, long lines, fish traps and lobster pots on the left drifting at sea after it accidentally, a loss of fish or boats, or discarded, in an emergency, such as in a storm.

"catch device is used to collect marine organisms, and can continue to do so Long After the equipment was lost or thrown away in The Sea ," said Joel Baziuk, the global Ghost Gear Initiative (GGGI).

"If it considers lost Fishing gear catching fish, after its intended life-span, it is Fishing as a ghost to. "

Joel says: "Ghost gear is a problem everywhere, Fishing , and Scotland . "
