Today i fished a new section of my local coastline to find in my horror :shock: :x ilegal positioned nets 1 metre from shore. I stumbled and got my feet all wound up in these god dam nets ("sorry for the outburst") but I was so mad !!
During my 4 hours of fishing I came across 6 illegal unmarked nets. On my return home i contacted the authorities of the location of the nets. They said they will check the location and remove the nets.
2 km from the location I was fishing there is a feeder river where the fish go up to spawn. so that made me even more mad. :evil:
I do hope the authorities investigation comes out with a good outcome. But as we all know there are no markings on these nets, so it it hard for the authorities to find the real culpret all they can do is remove the offending nets.
After all that trouble. Even though I did not catch anything in my short fishing trip. I feel happy that these nets will be removed to protect the future generations of seatrout.
Now im calming down !!! 🙄
