The lease area is closed up to and including 7 February so they can facilitate repairs and try and recapture the farmed fish. It is patrolled and they will send you on your way. If you keep out ofthe area you should be OK. You might pick up a stray but there are plenty of other fish to target.

If they are schooled, start your motor with lures behind you and accelerate off and on! This can instigate them feeding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
