Africa Wild

RP, these illegal trawlers are really a huge concern to all of the residents here. They often drag their nets very close to shore at night and can be identified by the very bright lights on their sterns lighting up the area where the nets are. Their nets must be destroying what coral there is in this area as well as the fish stocks. I have often discussed this with senior members in a few departments who are responsible for investigating such issues but hardly ever get feedback regarding any action taken against the trawlers .

The Chinese are our masters, Ellol. maybe they will send us some Coronavirus equipment in return.

Absolutely RP, it is actually a very sad situation.

Maybe you should invest in a bazooka or missile launcher

Great idea Harry, unfortunately the current minister's of defence and police will not take too kindly to that

Good evening

Isn't fishing under Mrs.Creecy now?

Not sure Lis, I have spoken with senior officials in a few conservation departments.

Thanks very much Lis, I will try and contact her office directly when next one of the trawlers are seen here at night.

Here are a few more photos taken from my veranda. The first photo is of a research ship that sails past sometimes.
