scorpion 95 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Yeah saw it on the news tonight Aaron.Story pointing at the rec anglers again,questioning whether rec angling should be allowed in Dolphin sanctuary. Doesn't look good for the future if the media keep bagging us rec fisherman. I have to question the the type of fishing line they say is wrapped around the poor thing.In the past the media reports its rec fishing line tangled around the dolphins, only to see in the footage that it is in fact thick pro fishers lines.Couldn;t tell from the footage tonight but hope it isn't rec fishing line.Anyway i hope they find it and remove the line from that Dolphin.It would be a slow painfull death.I also urge all other fisherpersons on the water to pick up any discarded line to help prevent this happening again or we risk being banned from fishing with in the Dolphin Sanctuary.
