    I fish the pier in Florida where I live for king mackerel, Spanish mackerel etc my entire life . But Florida like the rest of America has become over crowded and it’s no longer enjoyable here . I have to pay a toll to get to the beach then pay again to fish on the pier . It’s over crowded and the mackerel have been drained because of commercial fishing . Are there any sand mines or other types of mines near there that I could work at ? I want to move there

    @uranganpierfishing9442Ай бұрын

    Bat is for our safety. If your referring to the Dusky Whaler Sharks they are permitted to eat in Qld. up to 1.5m long and 1 per person, so if they fit those parameters they get eaten.

    Your safely? It's a baby fish for fucks sake. You were taking the hook out of it's mouth just fine, the bat is for belting it to death. You only use it on the ones you keep so don't piss in my pocket mate. I know what the laws are and the laws are fucking stupid. Obviously if you take baby fish then the population will decline and possibly end up extinct. You seem to just make up names for sharks anyway but dusky whalers are an endangered species. So would it be common sense or at least common decency to throw them all back. The law needs to change. Sharks are being outfished quicker than they can reproduce and it's because the laws allow you keep babies but throw back adults. The laws are out dated. Laws take forever to change, meanwhile the actual planet is changing regardless of whether laws change to keep up with it or not. YOU are driving these fish to extinction. Stop fishing them. Have some common sense
