Spearfishing is a sport and livelihood that enjoys worldwide participation. International spearfishing competitions and expos draw large crowds from all over the world. Currently spear fishermen store their catch by attaching them to a float line or nearby buoy. This does nothing to preserve the fish and can also attract sharks, exposing the fish to theft by these predatory creatures, not to mention endangering the fishermen. Safety is always a concern for spear fishermen, who will often shorten their dives in order to avoid blood from their catch attracting sharks.
The Divers Cooler was invented by an experienced spear fisherman to solve the problem of storage during long dives in the ocean.
