addmitedly by accident!

 

 

the government announced this week that it has given ,in principle, the go ahead for inshore wind fams allround the british coast,at more than 6 times cheaper than off and deep water wind farms these are the way forward,and obviously pay for themselves within a considerably short time,saving cost and the enviroment.

There has been widespread critisizm of the scheme amongst the inshore comercial netting fleet,saing that the wind farms would drasticly reduce their netting area.

Ecologists on the other hand have applauded the govenment for their actions stating that the inshore wind farms will act as huge conservation areas for marine life,the like of which in the past they could only dream of acheiving.Experts in the field stated that the no go zones for comercial netters would become refuges for threatened stocks to breed in and with time bring our fish stocks back up to a sustainable level.the British bass society has also welcomed the move and said that maybe in the near future bass catches from the beach maywell return to the levels of yeasteryear.

I was thinking the same when I saw the news, beach fishing could well be saved by this programe, those little

platforms look like good marks too

Great news, if you live where they are going to be installed. But the netters will just move along the coast and make the problem worse in other areas.

I heard from the brother of a bass netter, who was netting just off of Pendine beach here in west wales, which has always been a cracking bass mark, that every time he pulled his net in he was making £5,000.
