Illegal netting

Unfortunately, it has been brought to our attention that since we posted up about the Golden Grey Mullet returning some unscrupulous characters have targeted that well known hotspot and illegally netted the area. Their main target is, of course, bass. We have also had some reports of illegal netting of bass in the Ferry. We would ask all anglers to be vigilant. If you come across such activity or any activity you are unsure of, or if you come across nets, please contact the South Western Region Fisheries Board on (026) 41222. If you feel brave enough it might help to take a few photos. Be vigilant!!!
