tanglefish Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) A policy that would create massive approval across Sydney is an examination of the commercial fishing regulations for Pittwater and the Hawksbury River. Currently commercial fishing is allowed and the methods employed by these fishermen is drag netting or Trawling. This technique results in killing everything in the net. So all bycatch is killed, and the end result is an unproductive fishery. A Recreational fishery in the middle of Sydney would be a far more productive use of the resource. The economic benefits would be far reaching, from boating services to fishing tackle. Not to mention all the happy Sydneysiders. This could be a ground breaking policy.

tanglefish Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 http://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/fishing/closures/location-closures How stupid are these idiots. Lets close the fisheries with the least amount of fishermen. Every major river on the East coast has restrictions except the Hawksbury.
