Title: Net Pulled
Post by: chronic_topdawg on November 07, 2013, 03:38:00 PM

Just to let ya all know there was another net pulled from a north side creek.  Two guys with a camo painted small boat with an old kicker were spotted checking it this morning.  Evidently the fish fence has gotten poor numbers for last 3 days.  Keep your eyes open for this crap.  This net was in a high traffic spot but just almost out of dyke sight.

It would be helpful to know what "north side creek"

So can keep my eyes open, not so I can fish it!

not many fish fences around but it starts with a K.  But this is the second pulled in a week or two in different systems, that are geographically close  There is a demand for illegal fish so Ill keep my eyes open anywhere

So im guessing "pulled" means that the net has been removed?

Heard about this happening the other day as well.
I sure hope they keep an eye out for this.

It's super muddy there so net fishing is really the only way

DFO has been notified.
I will also keep an eye out if down that way.
The dudes in the boat were wearing full balaclavas and camo gear apparently.
