I think this video was already put on before or i think maybe the link.
But yeah the post went like IS THIS REALLY ALLOWED i think...
I dont have much of a problem considering that these fish are verry small and in my opinion as long as they kept to the bag limits if there was any..Ide like to share an experience with you.
It's sort of the same if you look at it.Well jonah and i went fishing at Blue Lagoon not long after the storms.The mouth was closed at that point and there were some fisherman on the north bank.As the tide came in the water started to pound the shore.Where the original mouth used to be,all the fisherman decided to call it a night and by 3am we were the only two die hards there.There were two guy's sitting and packing up and sudenly we saw one of run onto the shore and grab something.I think he missed but never the less he stayed there ad as a huge wave hit and then reseeded he grabs the sand again,to out amazement this guy had caught a live mullet.
What was happening is that the mullet were being washed up by the huge swell.He tried again but missed so decided to give me the mullet which i inturn slid out.The reason for this story is that if these fish in the video were mullet and we needed mullet for live bait or bait would we not do the same...Lol lol lol
I am all for conservation but hey guy this seems so easy and would sve so much time and effort collecting live bait...
Cheers Riymos

Thanks Riymos, i didnt know that this video was put on before...anyways it was really amazing, i also wonder in which country this video was taken??? It seems that the fish get spooked by the sudden brightness of the torch, and then start to jump all over the place, somewhat like the poachers at night, when the parksboard arrive...
And about Blue Lagoon North Bank, i went there for a walk on Saturday afternoon, with my better half, and what a beautiful site to have a walk amongst that serenity and beauty, cos its not often that u get to venture on that side, but living in Durban, all good things have to come to an end, cos there were a host of fisherman there, and there were a few small (25cm-30cm) grunter coming out, and i witnessed a few of them bagging these fish...i tried to get a photo of the idiots, but my cell battery died on me, i want to get this shoot (with a camera that is), name and shame thing going, to promote conservation...
Even as bad, as we were making our way back to the car, a few idiots were in a group fishing, and having a few beers, as we were walking out, they proceeded to throw their empty bottles towards the lagoon, so as we walked past them, we proceeded to pick up the bottles that they threw and carried them with us to the nearest bin... The sickening thing is that these idiots were laughing us off, and then threw another bottle in front of us, which we politely picked up and walked away with.... This is the stupidity that runs so rife in Durban, people just want to argue and pick a fight... I hope i taught these guys something in a non-offensive way!!! I hope they learn!!!

The shame and blame idea is a good one but it most probably won't have the desired effect on people like that, they're far too thick skinned and too much of an idiot/s to actually catch the drift, it's a real pitty that people can sometimes become so stupid, possibly youngsters hey? Still doesn't make it right thou, we all live on this one planet in this one counrty and we need to protect and promote it any way we can.
I would've felt like crap had you gone and picked up the empties I was throwing around, so that was brave of you, and I must admit you're a better man than what I would've been, cause I'd pick up some empties, walk over smack the biggest one on the roof and shove the rest of the empties up his rearend, just to show him what a pain in the rear he actually is?
Good on you, my hat off 2 u bru, pitty it didn't stop their stupidity.
