Ken Davison South Wales:

This thread started stating the boat had been stopped for fishing in a no go area, is that statement still the case?

yes ken. as far as i am aware they were in a no go area around the nuclear plant dounreay which is being decommissioned.

Hiya,

 

After having the "pleasure" of watching the "Apollo" in action earlier this year in the Sound of Mull, I know what I'd like to do to the crew & the boat :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

 

The fish were ripped off the line's with the aid of a gaff, what they didn't want was dumped back over the side, approx 350 LSD's for one line and every one of them with the hook ripped out. :mad:

Davy,

 

Did you ever make a complaint about that to any 'offical bodies'?

 

I would have thought that would qualify as animal cruelty, could they not be done by the polis/SSPCA under the wildlife act?
