Victorian anglers No super trawler rally


Saturday 1st September






Environmental
Point1
We don’t believe the science and its too conflicting with the jack mackerel population now being stated by the CSIRO as resident in many key areas
Point 2
Why interfere with the food chain for very little if any benefit to Australia its just too bigger risk

Economical
Point 3
There is no financial benefit to Australia
None
the fuel used on this boat is being subsidised by the EU making our fishing fleet less competitive

Social
Point 4
There is no benefit to the recreational or commercial fishery by having this boat here
Point 5
Why take any risk with this boat that is of no benefit to the larger population
Recreational fishing is one of the biggest social activities in Australia From garbologists to lawyers we all fish and talk about fishing and love fishing, its one of the great equalisers

  2. A great turn-out will really help STATE politicians to see how important this issue is to so many recreational fishers (and hopefully non-fishers that just don't see this as a healthy way to treat our fisheries and also join in).
    In the end it is the FEDERAL politicians that need to stop this - but our pressure on the STATE politicians does filter through to Canberra (eventually). To speed this up, can you also spend just 5 minutes to write to Joe Ludwig (Federal Minister for Fishing) and Tony Burke (Federal Minister for Environment) and ask them to stop it. Their contact details, along with a posting titled "21 reasons why we should all be protesting" can be found on the site https://www.facebook.com/StopTheSuperTrawlers#!/StopTheSuperTrawlers
