Game fishing man gets caught

A 51 year old man who killed a protected and endangered grey nurse shark has been fined $2,000.

The department of Primary Industries and Fisheries officers found the 1.7m FEMALE shark in the man’s boat about 15km from Pinnacle Point of Forster, which is an important grey nurse shark site. Fishos are reminded they need to know the rules and regulations within each state or territory in Australia before going fishing.

Anyone who sees a person fishing illegally is asked to call ‘Fishers Watch’. (Modern Fishing Nov. 2008)
The fishing board game ‘Starlo Fishing Forever Australia’ has joined the fight in trying to educate anglers to follow the rules and regulations.
