[Prior art]
Fish such as Ainame, Mebaru, black porgy, pheasant grouper, and scorpionfish are good targets for surf fishing, and are very delicious as food. These fish feed on zooplankton, which aggregates on brown algae such as larvae, scallops, and honda straw, and feed the fishing grounds with some artificial means to create a seaweed bed for these seaweeds. "Fishing ground improvement" to be improved is widely performed.
[0003]
As one of the methods for improving the fishing grounds, there is a method of putting natural stones and stacking them. However, although this method is inexpensive, the natural stones that are put in are stacked on the seabed, so the surface tends to get muddy, and the formation of seaweeds becomes worse. However, there is a drawback that the surface area is inevitably reduced, so that there is much waste.

Then, three iron stop bars 22 are installed in parallel on the hanging flange 21 at the opening on the upper surface of the basket 2. The stop bar 22 releases iron ions in the sea and can also increase rigidity. Thereafter, the hook 1 or the like of a crane can be hooked on the suspension fittings 12 fixed to the four corners of the upper surface of the reef block 1 to sink the reef block 1 into the sea.
[0026]
Then, fish that inhabit the sea can enter and exit the block from the opening 11 on each wall surface of the reef block 1 reaching the seabed. Then, as time passes, the basket 2 and the stop bar 22 made of iron gradually oxidize and release iron ions. This iron ion has the effect of promoting the growth of brown algae such as alame, squid and Honda straw, which are feeds preferred by fish.
[0027]
Furthermore, in the present embodiment, by shaping the reef block body 1 so as to expand toward the bottom from the upper surface to the bottom surface, the peripheral wall portion has better rooting than the upright wall surface, and also has an area for receiving sunlight. Can be larger. In addition, a shelf portion on which a growth can be made can be formed widely also on the bottom side of the side opening portion 11, and furthermore, it is easy to receive sunlight, which is a favorable condition for growth.
[0028]
Therefore, a large number of brown algae settle on the peripheral wall of the reef block 1 and the surface of the cylindrical body 3, thereby forming an environment in which fish such as sea fins, rockfish, black porgy, pheasant grouper and scorpionfish easily grow. (See FIG. 3).
[0029]
As a modified example of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, at least a part of the through-hole 32 of the cylindrical body 3 is exposed at the edge of the upper surface opening of the reef block 1. Are accommodated in the basket 2 so that fish can freely move through the through-hole 32 and the internal space can be effectively utilized. In addition, by forming the protruding legs 13 on the bottom surface of the fish reef block body 1 as necessary, it is possible to stably dispose the fish reef block 1 on an uneven seabed and effectively utilize the space near the bottom surface.
