Nothing wrong big companies does the same on there boats , Viking ,sea harvest etc , when the poor does it , it becomes a crime ....

[@kevinpretorius5281]

Now we know why the fisherman that uses a rod and reel is being restricted. It is sad to see this amount of fish being removed this way and explains why our eastern cape hardly ever sees shoals of yellowtail any more.

[@pawleyboboli]

When I asked the foreman how often they get a catch this big, he said about once every 3 years or longer. I will say that most times I see them with very small catches or nothing at all. One time, they scooped up a school of jellyfish, and put them all back in the water by hand.

[@daiyaandavids582]

And this fish feeds many mouths good protein at way less of cost to the less fortunate poorer communities rather rip the big Com boats really ravishing the waters

[@jahblessjah2341]

Man what kaka , leave the locals alone , direct your path at the kaka government instead

[@karenessauthor]

Actually not so. UCT did a study on this. It's the big trawlers that result in lack of shoals in eastern cape. This is actually an ecofriendly, sustainable way of fishing.

[@sterndeklerk6802]

Typically. No foresight. Opportunistic. Same way the country is managed.

[@tbone5426]

Same way it was founded, opportunists...unfortunatly the pendulum swings both ways..my country is so beautiful and Im sad it has never been better taken care of...

Is this sustainable?

[@TigerMeadows]

Well I guess it depends on what you consider to be sustainable. Personally I'd like to see much more livelier seas and oceans with much more fish in them. So to me this isn't sustainable.

[@bradparker6156]

Guess it depends on how often such events occur. They were lucky on 2 consecutive days. From a rock&surf angler who hardly catches anything, but returns most of catch to the sea so as to limit own impact on the dwindling stocks, I hope they saw no more for a reasonable time.

[@ivanmynhardt]

well its way more sustainable than the corporate companies who supply you fish from supermarkets.

[@karenessauthor]

Yes it has been done for hundreds of years, and they made sure they encouraged the growth of fish for next year's catch and the year after etc. The Japanese and Chinese trawlers, with their mechanical.sucking machines that swallow everything including tiny fish.....they have destroyed SA fishing.

[@annexton3795]

Absolutely 100% sustainable. These fishermen and their ancestors have been fishing like this for more than a century. I see here they're using a radio. Before the men on the lookout at the top of the mountain communicated with a whistle.

[@lulamantshephe5595]

Not my favorite, I loooove snoek 😃🇿🇦

[@shereem3291]

These people just don't know how to handle this fish period

[@marcb6290]

Such ignorance. Throwing those huge hamachi in the hot sand. And throwing um period destroys the meat. Yellowtail should also be bled. One of the best tasting fish in the world.

[@daiyaandavids582]

A poorer person ain't gonna lightly sear each side with drizzle of garlic butter they gonna Make a big pot of food with that steak in your plate alot of this fish go to people in underprivileged communities at much cheaper next to nothing rates

[@evelynebuenga8120]

a

[@yulianasine5398]

We need to stop them to much fish

[@yulianasine5398]

Like chriminal

[@TigerMeadows]

This is not humane to the fish, and not good for the fish stems or the ocean.

[@moenierbenjamin9733]

Nothing wrong big companies does the same

[@karenessauthor]

Actually a traditional way of fishing which is sustainable. Quite unlike big trawlers

[@yulianasine5398]

Not good at all

[@logansmithers6688]

This is atrocious and takes all the fish from the sustainable fisherman like spearfishing and anglers u ruin the season by catching the fish before they can come around the mountain to spawn u poes
