Default Re: RD$ 250 for each fish caught!!!!

Andy, in the newspapers, I did not see the part about $250 tax for each fish caught. Perhaps there is a positive side to that. If it just applied to billfish, it would encourage catch and release. If it applied to all fish (Grouper (Mero), Wahoo, King Mackerel, Dorado, etc., it would be a disaster.

What they need to do is pull all of the gill nets that are in front of the Mangroves all over the country and then, pull all of the fish traps that catch everything, most of which die in the traps before they are pulled.
