Artificial reefs are used throughout the
world to increase the fisheries poter\tial of barren
or relatively unproductive areas. Artificial reefs
also act as effective fish attracting devices during
certain times of the year. Reefs when properly
located and structured not only concentrate fishes,
but also increase the biological productivity of the
area. Formation of rough rigid bottom habitat
with artificial reefs of diverse materials increases
the surface area necessary for fish food organisms.
The reefs also often serve as spawning habitat and
shelter for fishes and shellfishes.
