Sherbs, Andrew and I were fishing near the lighthouse the other night and three fisheries officers came up and checked our buckets. It was a crap fishing night so we had nothing to show them.

Hi Ya,

I suspect that who ever runs the marina put the ban on and Fisheries won't be policing it.  they wouldn't have the authority.

Just my guess.

Cheers.

Hi Ody I agree - they probably came to some arrangement

Wed, 2009-06-17 14:15

with the restaurant. It might be something to do with the car parking bays adjacent to that area.
It is stupid really as most anglers only fish in that spot at night or very early in the morning when there aren't too many other people around - especially in winter when the fishing in that spot is best.
