Undersize Back Bream
Submitted by Stewart on Mon, 2013-08-05 21:51
I had really good fishing in the Swan river on Sunday with some sizeable Black Bream (all returned), unfortunetly the day was kind of ruined by witnessing at least 30+ undersize Bream being taken by the usual fucktards with their plastic bags. If I had the fisheries number on me I would have contacted them but didn't have the number. Sent them an email last night just waiting on a return mail

I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.

I always feel good when I read that some one cares about our fishing future and reports people who don't give a damn and break the law, again well done and thank you

Do what i do, walk up and say
Do what i do, walk up and say that you noticed the fish are undersized and fisherys have been down alot. Not so contfonting and will save a fight.
Always have fishwatch number on you. I tryed the above tactic down freshwater bay a year back. Although this time it didnt work not to mention a couple of them were big boys and i was on my own so i called fishwatch and they acually rolled up in less than 30min. Walked up and busted them. All fish and undesized crabs went back in. Really happy how quick they got there!

Cheers lads I now have the
Cheers lads I now have the fish watch number in my phone and will be sure to call if I see the same again. I had my 3 year old son with me so the possibility of threatening them wasn't going to happen. I have witnessed this carry on back in Ireland with foreign nationals netting canals and rivers and depleting stocks of fish to the level that some areas are now baron!! The only way to tackle the problem is to notify the relevant authorities ASAP and let them reprimand the assholes. The Irish fisheries board has increased it's fines and in some cases impounded vehicles,rods,reels nets etc till fines are paid and this has stemed a lot of the problem. Heres hoping the same happens here. Stew
