- .Decline of
#seabirds coincides with Inshore Fishing (Scotland) Act 1984 which allowed fishing by all methods within 3 miles of the shore. @Seasaver Climate has a role to play, but fishing is the biggest problem without doubt , hoovering up baitfish for farmed Salmon- .Another factor, ironically, may be cleaner seas. Food processing waste, sewage etc. fed small fish in many coastal areas.
@Seasaver rubbish there isn't any inshore fisheries to speak of,,sandeels have disappeared and not with overfishing,30 years ago they were@LapwingPD972@Seasaver hype vs facts!!@Seasaver everywhere,large areas of sea never saw a sandeel boat where we fished every fish had a sandeel in its stomach but today never see@Seasaver one sandeel huge areas never saw a industrial trawler don't blame overfishing because you don't have a clue!!! And I'm against@Seasaver industrial fishing but the decline in sandeels is environmental, water temp made their food disappear fishing is always a easy tar@SteveTrewhella1@Seasaver I hate industrial fishing,but sandeels disappeared due to water temp and no food for them,,I hate industrial fish@Seasaver stop telling LIES I hate industrial fishing but not their fault !!

Give us a reply to that one!!!! Or scared incase people fund out and money stops!@Seasaver it's the complete opposite ..less fishing boat equals less seabirds !!@Seasaver no Sandeel fishery in Scottish waters for years .. Fishermen get the blame for everything.@ThroughTheGaps@LapwingPD972@Seasaver they were on about industrial fishing and seabirds dying couple o hrs ago, info from noah in his ark@ThroughTheGaps@LapwingPD972@Seasaver biggest load of gosh from them was about subsidies we get,don't seem to know Britain draws v little
