jerry.shutter Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Thanks Stuie, I heard the end of this this morning. Let's hope it's the right way forward, I certainly think it is if it's policed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alun j. Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 I don't think there are enough boats in the navy to police / enforce this [66 not counting subs !]....but it could be one of their more useful tasks ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newboy Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Is this just fishing fleet? What about chartered boats or visiting private boats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve S Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Think this is a political gesture to try and show some benefit.What will make a real difference is banning beamers and scallop dredgers as a first step as they destroy the environment. Our politicians blame the EU for most everything, our hands are tied EU policy etc . Well that has not stopped Ireland for instance have a commercial bass fishing ban for many years. We could do lots to improve our waters in or out of the EU but very little has happened.Our commercial fisherman export a lot to the EU, they are not going to want to stop that. So something will be traded...Better to do than view Paul J 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve S Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 And while I am at it. Compulsory video of the fishing and the catches. We don't need a patrol boat to check the video and see what they are up to (lots). Better to do than view Kingfisher 126, Stuie and jerry.shutter 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
