Nearly 14,000 artificial reefs have been placed in a 1,200 square-mile area off two major tourist towns, Orange Beach and Gulf Shores, which are visited regularly by game-fishers looking to reel in a prize catch.
But the reefs are put on public bottoms so the only guarantee that one has to harvest his garden is the secrecy of the location -- and that may disappear because people find these reefs all the time and anybody can fish them legally.
By contrast, the fishers who deploy reefs have a strong incentive to protect and manage them; they know where the reefs are, and can come back later to catch more fish if they leave some behind to breed and to grow.

The reef, believed to be as much as 14,000 years old, is the deepest known light-dependent coral reef in U.S. waters and surprisingly healthy; the coral was free of disease or the ravages of pollution.
