    Article was on RNZ website....


    Quote....The proposed Indigenous Freshwater Fish Amendment Bill, would amend the Conservation Act.

    The bill would stop some whitebaiters from fishing in conservation areas, and the National Party claims it will ultimately result in the prohibition of whitebaiting in New Zealand.

    Hundreds of people attended a meeting hosted by the local whitebaiting association in Hokitika yesterday, and long-time West Coast whitebaiter Des McEnaney told Morning Report today whitebaiters there were feeling confused and under siege.

    "These changes that have been promoted now in the legislation coming out have created more confusion, so whitebaiters have been deeply worried as to what's going on, the messages coming out," he said.

    Just spoke with a few people who would have been in the know and they're all unaware of any meeting happening.
    Maybe the media (highly unlikely) screwed it up and are referring to one a month ago?

    I got my first taste for the season, went scooping at the mouth and got enough for a couple of big patties.

    Just good to get out in the fresh air and feel alive again, and the little buggers taste good as well

    Lucky bugger, I have had a lean trot so far. My sport starts in 2 weeks so I won't get out much more.
