This guy lives in the UK so who knows about their laws, I know no where
in the states could you get away with this
The Native Americans / First Nation people are allowed on some rivers in
the West to gill net. If you strung the net across a navigable river, do
not expect it to be there when you return. Or at least in one piece.
Great Post! That was quite common here for awhile then the Indians
decided it was best to drift with their nets. The next thing you know
their boats started sinking during the night for some unknown reason so
they started pulling their boats at night. It wasn't long after that
they were hit with shotgun pellets. Now, it is pretty rare to see a net
outside of the reservation, imagine that. I guess some people just
don't like others who net the rivers, maybe the OP should have realized
that before posting.
BTW, to the OP, your rigging will not work, that is not how it's done.
I've hung enough gillnet in my time to get a good chuckle out of your
plan. Don't bother to email me because I'm not going to tell you how
either.

This stretch of river is not navegatible. I'm not a native or non
native american. I don't live in a reservation. I don't have a boat
on the river. No-one shoots other people's boats where I live.
Perhaps this is acceptable behaviour where you live when you disagree
with them, but here, shotguns are not used to shoot boats.
"I guess some people just

I did realise that before posting, however, people where I live do not
mind netting of rivers. I really don't care what someone across the
atlantic's opinion of gill netting is. BTW, it shows you don't have a
mature attitude when you laugh at someone's idea. I don't intend to
email someone like you. Go do some metal detecting.
