It was disappointing to turn up to Tahaenui on Saturday to find empty Purple Goanna bottles, V can, discarded nylon, lemon carcasses and cray bodies. Take your rubbish with you. Chuck your fish waste in the water. Other species can feed on it. Spikes and bones aren't left for people to stand on.

The snapper don't know where the car park is!
Sometimes it is better to travel than to arrive.

Yep, nothing worse than turning up at your favourite spot only to spend time cleaning up someone elses rubbish before you even start to fish.
If you can't be bothered taking your mess home at the end of the day, then don't take it to the beach in the first place, or better yet, just stay at home yourself.

I believe the subject raised my Judda deserves a thread my itself. Anyone who has walked the beaches after a large surfcasting competition would be horrified at the rubbish left behind by anglers and their companions, and this does little for our reputation.

I once raised this issue in a Whakatane newspaper after a large competition was held on the Matata straits. The organising club were not at all happy, especially with the photos I submitted. However, after that the club always had beach patrols after a comp to clean up the litter.

Well done Judda was raising an embarrassing issue, this is a the first step in the right direction. Turning a blind eye will achieve nothing.

Glad that wasnt aimed at the Pania Contests Hangler as we always have a sweep of the beach after the event. Sometimes it is surprisingly clean before the sweep.

Re: Friday night

It wasn't aimed at anyone, what I have written is factual and on record as it made the front page of the Whakatane newspaper. As judda reported, beer cans and empty bottles were much in evidence, not nice.

Anglers, especially surfcasters and those who fish the wharves, are very much in the eye of the public, bait wrappers and discarded nylon are a pain to see. I am sure there are others who pick up nylon and take it away for proper disposal, it's not nice to see a bird with it's legs entangled in line.

i beleave it is the people who just go out a random fish once a year and don't under stand to only leave foot prints on the beach , turned up to one my normal spots last night and spent the first 30 mins walking around picking up cody cans, old bait wrappers,mcds wrappers,bout 20 cig buts,glass,bags and wipes and don't get me started on the car park ,all before i was happy to start fish sum how we need to educate every one to only leave foots prints

Hi all. I agree with judda i turned up at tahanui and fished next to a family of 6 having a bbq and setting a longline. With no rods out. I am not saying it was them but there were all so two a bit further down the beach. I am just saying its is hard to pin it on people

What is interesting is the pic of a goanna bottle and next posting has been removed..

Makes it look even worse, but lets hope there has been a lesson learnt

Re: Friday night

I can tell you mate, that I fish that area nearly every week and am just as disgusted as anyone else is. Anyone else that has fished with me will no how I do not leave anything behind!

Re: Friday night

On ya for fronting up bro, i must put my hand up i always clean all mine and others rubbish away before leaving but the other night i left a rather large mess of line tangled in sea weed, i was so busy trying to get back in the water i totally forgot about it can't say i actually saw/noticed again through the night.
Maybe that is why it missed the bucket with the rest of the rubbish. So yea, even those of us who 99% of the time are tidy still need to be better.
