Mordialloc Pier and river mouth has become an absolute joke. Regularly I see people taking undersize fish, throwing rubbish into the water and leaving fishing line and bait all over the pier after a fishing session.
WHY!?!
Whats up!!
In full view of the public people take what appear to be Bream no more than 15-18cm long - TINY.
DPI have been informed but little has been done obviously, police on the odd occasion stroll by to check for alcohol consumption.
alcohol doesnt offend me nearly as much as juvi bream being ripped out of a nursery (Mordy river)
on one occasion a eldery man had a bucket full miniscule bream, each fish wouldn't equate to a 1/4 of a fish stick.
Come on, have some standards, maybe even a few morals and leave the scrappers to grow.

Nah it's not. Take a camera with you next time you head that way.
Take some nice pics & start sending em 'enmasse' to local/federal members, Fisheries, DPI, papers, elec' media, etc.
If this sort of behaviour is being seen regularly it shouldn't take much effort to get a good assortment of 'evidence'.
thats a damn shame john, ive given many hours in pursuit of a nice toothy and unless i was interested in eating it id do my best to see it swims away with the least amount of harm. but as to the issue it self not much you can do about always gonna be bad eggs around shame is the bad eggs are out breeding the good ones.
Check out idiocracy peoples it is happening.

No offence Bill but that will probably get fishing closed down in that area
