Fishing can be a high intensity environment with men crossing from one direction of the boat to the other, crossing paths could cause the cables to become entangled and possibly result in injury from falling.

The whole time it was flashing red and feel it chewing threw my wet suit. I was at 90 ft so I inflated my bc and that was the only reason he couldn't get me down and gave up and left.
