charlieannear Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Please read about C- Bass! http://www.ukbass.com/c-bass-putting-the-conservation-into-seabass/ This is a project by CEFAS Please also read! http://wwz.ifremer.fr/bar_eng/The-Bargip-project2 and/or this summary: http://www.ukbass.com/the-bargip-project/ This is a French project but with many more tags. The tab on the webpage called marking tells you all about the tagging. They need as many tags back as possible. If you catch one of these on our side of the Channel, please consider assisting.

charlieannear Posted February 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 Here's an update from this research project, which uses electronic tags to map Bass migration patterns: https://marinescience.blog.gov.uk/2016/01/18/c-bass-on-the-move/ There's a reward if you find one, not that you'll be able to find one until July 2016 when you are next able to land one...

charlieannear Posted February 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 I've got this from CEFAS: After speaking directly to my colleagues at the MMO I can confirm that any Cefas / IFREMER electronically tagged sea bass our exempt from the C&R regulations and anglers will still be allowed to return electronically tagged fish (fish & tag), to Cefas directly for reward. MMO colleagues are now kindly spreading the word to their coastal officers in relation to this, but If you are able to create further awareness too your end it would be hugely appreciated. I attach here the bass reward poster with our contact details on what to do if a tagged fish is caught, together with the link to our C-Bass Blog, If you have any further queries then please don’t hesitate to get in touch, Kindest regards as always Vicky Victoria BendallFish Ecology Team Leader, Cefas Pakefield Road, Lowestoft, Suffolk, NR33 0HTTel: +44 (0)1502 527773 www.cefas.defra.gov.uk www.sharkbywatch.org Follow Shark By-Watch UK at or Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Martin Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 So we are banned from landing bass for our own personal consumption but when it suits the authorities we can kill bass and give them to them. Talk about confusing the hell out of the general public. Can anyone tell me where do these people get their logic from?
