Thread: Good job!!

Believe there's a lot of illegal fishing in Taupo, netting and spear, hard to police, I've fished Taupo for the passed 12 yrs always with a licence and have never been approached by F&G, I must look honest?

Mr Pitkethley says “income from licence fees is used to manage and maintain our trout fisheries –

How the hell do you manage Trout for Chrissake, it's not as if you have to water and feed them is it? Do they herd them up every night and explain what they have to do the next day, fucken hell they are imports shouldn't they be destroyed like Deer, Pigs, Chamoi and Tahr and at one stage Ducks? How the hell do they justify $106 for a licence anyway.
What's to maintain and what have the fisheries done to help the supply of trout...put the price of licences up so only the rich can go fishing legally!!! is the only thing I have seen them do to date.

You manage them by breeding and releasing them. On top you try to manage all the dodgy bastards who think they are free.
