I just heard there are gilletters just outside of the Long Beach Harbor by the lighthouse area. I thought gillnetting was illegal? I got the report from Nick G. on the Crusador out of Pierpoint landing. He said they had white poles with a black flags. Are these gillnetters?
contact the rep here in your area to see what the laws are.
also check out the site below see if any of these nets match the one you saw.
