Being a Salmon fisherman myself (rod and line) I know that we have sod all fish left in the river. I spend hundreds a year buying tickets to fish for Salmon on the Tamar with the prospects of a fish minimal at best, angling brings revenue to the area, what do the nets bring to the party ? Millions have been spent to try and safeguard stocks on the Tamar and regeneration of these amazing fish. I completely understand this is a long standing tradition and a big pill to swallow the thought of you guys not being able to carry on. Ask yourself this question what are you going to do when you no fish left to fish for ?
