A marine park should fix it...

No he doesn't have a point, because he's the only one suggesting that it will fix all those problems, and not even he's being serious about it. Trying to make some half arsed point that marine parks are useless, because they can't protect against something that they weren't set up to protect against.

Calm the fuck down. You sound as nutty as the anti-fishing nazis that want to force marine parks onto us. Why don't you answer the question about how marine parks will protect fish from illegal fishing? I'll tell you the answer: it won't and there's the problem. The government shouldn't put in place something it simply won't be able to police. Illegal fishing is rampant in Australian waters and the authorities are powerless to stop it.

They could send in the fish guts swat team from NZ's border security show.

Shit why didn't I think of that?

IQ has a point. How is a marine park going to protect marine species from the impact of pollution...

They are set up to preserve biodiversity. Now you can explain how they are doing that in this instance?

Or you can admit they are purely an instrument of the left to disenfranchise fishermen

I'm pretty sure that they're not going to protect against an asteroid impact either... but then, nothing much will. Doesn't mean we can't start somewhere.

Exclusively targeting fishermen and in particular recreational fishermen is not "a start"

It's discrimination to appease Leftwing animal rights zealots

Quick freeloader, put a marine park around it...maybe ban floods and fine god if he digresses

Much of south-east Queensland's flood debris is threatening the ecology of Brisbane's Moreton Bay, with floods impacting 1,700 kilometres of the coastline, from the border to Cooktown.

Scientists have now begun an assessment of the damage in Moreton Bay after huge amounts of flood detritus from the Brisbane catchment rivers ended up in the bay adjacent to the city.

The amount of sediment that has washed into Moreton Bay has shocked Queensland Sustainability Minister Kate Jones.

"It is quite clear in the water quality how much sediment has been lost and is now in our bay," she said.

"This is a real threat to the sea grasses, which are the habitat and the food supply for our turtles and dugongs.

"This information that we receive from the water monitoring program will obviously inform how we best spend our dollars in regard to recovery."

Thanks for the suggestion IQ. You are an ideas man.

Fishing ban for Moreton Bay until flood debris clears

http://www.couriermail.com.au/news/sund ... 5992982671



FISHING is set to be banned in parts of Moreton Bay until government scientists can be sure the plume of mud and debris washed out of the Brisbane River by the flood is not polluting fish or seafood.

A fishing industry source told The Sunday Mail last night the ban, which could be announced as early as Sunday, was the idea of commercial fishermen who want to allay any public fears about food safety.

Recreational fishos entering inshore areas either side of the mouth of the Brisbane River were likely to be escorted away by Fisheries Queensland patrol boats, the source said.

Commercial fishermen have voluntarily agreed not to fish in the plume until they get the all-clear from the Government.

Fishermen met government officials on Friday to discuss worries about water quality in the aftermath of the floods.

State Government scientists carried out water tests in Moreton Bay on Wednesday and Thursday but the results will not be known for at least a week.

The area covered by the ban, which is expected to have immediate effect, runs from St Helena Island south of the mouth of the Brisbane River to Shorncliffe in the north.

A self imposed fishing ban On a plume of mud, freshwater and debri is not the same as your fucktarded calls to fence off the ocean to fishermen

I see you've fallen for the old 'foot in the door' trick again.

I see you've fallen for the old 'foot in the door' trick again.

I see you have once again failed to point out how marine parks provide any benefit or protection for biodiversity
