Out of sight, out of mind - East freo shark fishing ban proposal
Submitted by robert1979 on Tue, 2023-05-09 20:25
FYI especially for those who fish for sharks around East Freo, the council is proposing to ban it. I don't fish for sharks but feel its a wasted opportunity to actually obtain some info about these fish via recreational tagging.

Lots around Burswood
I am actually quite surprised there haven't been more bull shark attacks in the Swan........absence of the old prawn drag netters probably the reason there hasn't been .....those were the days for those that remember that far back
