Mackerel Fishing

[Arry 18,486]

Theres some bye law which put a limit on how many Mackerel you can take down hopes Nose I think it 20. Its to try and stop all the foreigners commercial fishing and the litter they leave behind. They have made it into some kind of nature reserve. In the local rag it said they had already fined some people.

It has been cleaned up there a bit. I'm heading there next week so hopefully get a few. I go mid week so it's fairly quiet. As Jonah said, a few years ago it got really bad. People where taking too much and leaving all their kit and litter behind. Will see how it is next week

That was this year eastern europeans were wrecking it with their greed and litter. Also they had upset a local crabber not sure how but he put a rope in front of the high ground to the right of mackerel point, so fishing for plaice and smooth hounds was out. Plenty of mackerel on the last big tides every where in the bay and start bay. good luck mate.

It was the Chinese a few years ago! Have to admit that a lot of the crap left behind was also local teenagers. I'm working down there so can't really tie it in with the tides. Will just paddle round and have a fish. Cheers Arry.

Loads of Mackerel in Start bay at the moment. Had a few for a feed yesterday from Beesands but the beach was minging the mackerel driven sprat white bait up the shore. there were two line of them about half a meter wide the hole length of the beach cooking in the sun. Had a cracking Fisherman breakfast from the cafe down there.

Thought I'd pass this on, Mackerel will die if handled then returned to the water. Best way is to crush the barbs or barb less hooks and shake them off straight back into the sea. Not trying to tell granny how to suck eggs but some folk don't know.
