Protections in the fishing zone

I'm just wondering if anyone uses the protections on their boats and if so what's the best way of doing it. There are five different hazards possible and no way to know which is most likely, but if you protect against all five you have no room in your boat for fish so you aren't gaining anything. Is there a technique to it that I'm missing?

  • I personally do not use them at all. It is more productive to replace them with freezers and fishing crew. I have found the best technique to fishing is to use freezers+fishing time+fish/hour overnight and reduce travel time+fish/hour during the day

    Think you will find they are not worth using - take up room & u never know what or how many hazards your ship/s will run across while they are out - pass use crew instead to get more fish back quicker!

    I wouldn't dream of buying protections but if I have a spare slot (I never use freezers. (well never more than one)) I'll pop one on for a higher risk pool.

    When I win some I put them on the boats until they run out.

    It's better to get your ships out and back fast as you can so save the slots for Travel speed and Fish caught per hour, you'll get more fish in the long run.  Give those worthless Protection to Santa when he comes in December.
  • That's more or less what I thought. Thanks for the feedback.

    .....and that is exactly why Santa can cruise around the world in one night, he is WELL protected ;)

  • Surely he uses the travel time reductions for that????
