DRY NETS, WEIGH SLINGS, UNHOOKING MATTS ONLY
We would like to remind all our members that only DRY nets,
weigh slings, unhooking matts can be brought onto our RFC
venues.
There are reports of local fisheries suffering fish deaths as a
result of disease or virus spreading between fisheries.
Nets, weigh slings, unhooking matts should be bone dry. Before
being brought onto any RFC fisheries.
Preferably dried outside by the ultraviolet rays of sun, which is
the best method for killing off all bacteria, germs etc.
Thank you for your cooperation understanding.
RFC venues committee.
