Unscramble me if you can Caribbean. A study conducted by Thompson in 1945 reported the island shelves (North and South) to be overfished by grounds. Not only has overall catch weight declined but so has the average size of fish caught. The species composition of the catch has also declined, towards less favoured varieties and trash fish. The mesh used in fishpots is usually 2.5 cm (1") or3.125 cm (1.25"), which traps fish before they are of age to spawn (juveniles); thatched pots covered with wire mesh used in certain parts of pileup of refuse, debris and fish offal, as well as by occasional offshore and nearshore oil spills. The quality of the water around several recreational beaches is deteriorating due to pollution, mining. The erosion of Jamaica's shoreline may be attributed to several factors. The degradation of coral reefs and mangrove forests have exposed the sandy beaches to increased wave action, and the illegal but common practice of mining sand from beaches has exacerbated the problem. Both recreational and fishing beaches have been fouled by the particularly from human waste, which makes sea bathing unpleasant. Numerous sandy beaches around Jamaica's coastline and on several inshore cays are invaluable to the tourism industry for the enjoyment of local and foreign visitors.
