Hi guys

Got a very quick response.

Got a call back from an officer who doesnt know if the net is still there or not in St helens. he will get someone to drop down over the next couple of days.Then said that lots of staff are on courses this week etc etc etc.

He did acknowledge that this net was reported the weekend before last.

He also asked me was it the one in Cahore........ after we talked about the net in st helens for 5 minutes.

We defo need a united effort here.

OK, if anyone is interested in setting up some kind of very informal group/alliance/thing for the wexford area, drop me a PM. We'd need a few enthuastic people willing to devote some time to it.

Thanks to all who made the effort to call the ERFB. Thier apparent ineptitude is mind boggling.

At one stage in the conversation with a fisheries officer yesterday i was asked where was Greenore point......Thats like a member of the Guardai asking where is oconnell st.


We defo need to set up an alliance.

Jonathan I will send you a pm.
