The people that annoy me are the foreigners that kill all their fish and can't take them home. Check out the butchers shop in Stanley where the freezer is full of fish which you can buy from a certain ghillie.<BR/><BR/>The follow up reply :-<BR/><BR/>Originally Posted by martin <BR/><BR/>What Ghillie is that????? <BR/><BR/>Sorry Martin, not up to me to name and shame especially on a public forum.

But I am sure the tay ghillies on here will know who I mean. <BR/><BR/>Further comment:-<BR/><BR/>aint that a pity, nothing better than a good name and shame them. especially when its highly illegal activity!!<BR/><BR/>Further comments :-<BR/><BR/>Victor, point taken, the key word there is "VOLUNTARY" and not Mandatory!, I take a Tenancy on the Dee for 2 weeks every year and have done for the last 20 years, I also at certain times of the season fish the Dee 2 or 3 times a week! and have supported them through thick and thin, but i can tell you that on certain prolific Dee beats when asked if the angler can take a fish the Gillies responce is "yes as long as you dont tell me!" (which i have never done!), in fact i returned a few Sea-liced fish this season with no problem, so can hardly be called 100% C&R!.<BR/>Theres just something nice about "having a choice", am all in favour of sorting out the apparent lower tay greed!<BR/>Regards<BR/>PT <BR/><BR/><BR/>Pinktomic,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for posting your views - hit the nail on the head with "Lower Tay greed".....thats a big part of the problem combined with complete igorance!!!<BR/><BR/>Hi pinktomic,<BR/><BR/>I mentioned this earlier in the thread. You just have to look at the butchers shop in Stanley where a certain renowned Ghillie stores the fish his foreign guests can't take home. This is all for sale you just have to know who to ask and as you know this has always been a tradition within the Stanley area.<BR/><BR/>Pretty damaging and i for one would demand who is making these accusations.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Stanley FisherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031925419425352500.post-83123613806730591012007-11-22T22:28:00.000+00:002007-11-22T22:28:00.000+00:00ban the 'Raider'ban the 'Raider'Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031925419425352500.post-70417385013076431742007-11-22T15:50:00.000+00:002007-11-22T15:50:00.000+00:00a one fish limit per day, and that can be very har...a one fish limit per day, and that can be very hard too do, then barbles hooks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031925419425352500.post-59380967646490466102007-11-21T10:57:00.000+00:002007-11-21T10:57:00.000+00:00What about years ago when vitually every fish was ...What about years ago when vitually every fish was knocked on the head?Obviously there was lots more fish then.So what has been done about the decline,to little to late I say.The damage has been done.I don't agree with compulsary catch & release.But understand the need for restraint.It would be better to put perhaps a 4 fish limit per rod for a weeks fishing.Then if you are lucky to catch your 4 in 1 or 2 days make it compulsary to fish barbless & return the rest.I could live with this,but there comes a time when the cost outweighs the return.This is when rods will look elsewhere.Watching with interest!!!!!!<BR/>Tayfisher(for now?)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031925419425352500.post-75137775489406774242007-11-20T22:56:00.000+00:002007-11-20T22:56:00.000+00:00How many Tay fish were chapped this season and how...How many Tay fish were chapped this season and how many were returned.<BR/><BR/>What beat has the highest chap rate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031925419425352500.post-14068517739037875812007-11-20T22:48:00.000+00:002007-11-20T22:48:00.000+00:00Bob,Are you one of the pleading ghillies.
