Check out the run down on our 8416 sounder running a fantom x radar. Loving the motion scope feature that identifies boats moving to and from you as either green or magenta! Loving having this as a backup for poor viz days or night time returns

ATTENTION ALL SPEAROS & DIVERS

There’s a submission to drastically change the areas commercial spearfishing can harvest reef fish. Aka butterfish in the Marlborough sounds. The first thing that needs happen is a stock assessment to see where the butterfish fishery is actually at.

I’m backing Option 1 – leave the area as it is, and I’m asking you all to speak up too. This isn’t about cutting into anyone’s livelihood — it’s simply about protecting an already stressed butterfish fishery before it gets pushed past the point of no return.

On my recent dives in the Marlborough Sounds, the drop in butterfish numbers compared to just five years ago was honestly shocking. Spots that used to hold plenty now feel empty. And when commercial spearfishers down south have already had to switch back to gill-netting because butterfish weren’t commercially viable anymore, that tells you the pressure is real.

Opening more areas right now would only increase catchability on a fishery that’s clearly struggling. That’s the wrong move in anyone’s book.

This isnt an attack on commercial fishing this is both recreational and commercial need to come together to protect the fishery.

Please make your voice heard. Flick through a submission using the email in the link — get it in before Friday. Protect what’s left so we still have a future fishery to enjoy.

It’s proposal 18 to look at page 31 in document or 35 when viewing it

Have your say Fisheries New Zealand is seeking feedback on a package of 19 proposed changes, mostly to commercial fishing regulations. Most changes have been proposed by representatives of the commercial fishing industry as a means to remove redundant regulations and regulations that are overly comp...
