About This Item

Ghost Net !!!

The orginal Travel Bug went missing.  So, now it is a fine Painted Wood Disk Travel Bug.  Do not keep it.  Keep it moving down to the Gulf of Mexico.

 

This guy will kill everything he comes into contact with when he is in the water! What is a ghost net??? They are fishing nets that have been lost accidentally, deliberately discarded, or simply abandoned at sea. They travel the oceans of the world with the currents and tides continually fishing as they progress through the waters. As they are unattended and roaming, they fish indiscriminately, not only catching threatened species but undersized and protected fish as well. It is a real problem. In the old days the nets were made of twine and ropes. They would decompose after awhile. Now they are made of nylon which just goes on and on to fish for years and years. Do a web search for more information. About this item: GHOST NET! When fish get stuck in the Ghost Net they attract other fish that get caught and attract more fish. It is a very bad cycle of death.
