Abstract: As avid anglers we were always interested in the survival chances of fish in turbulent oceans. This paper addresses this question mathematically. We show that a fish with bounded aquatic locomotion speed can reach any point in the ocean if the fluid velocity is incompressible, bounded, and has small mean drift.
