  • No Trawl Zones

    People may or may not be aware of some no trawl zones here in the NE.

    I am looking for a bit of feedback on the areas in question.

    The information were to be put in a questionaire form it would be :-

    1. Are you aware that these areas exist?
    2. Is the fishing any better in these areas than out of them?

    Any info supplied will be sent to an MP who has requested the information from an anglers point of view so may be benificial in the overall campaign to get the introduction of a golden mile as these areas are being studied as existing examples of the goldem mile.

    If I can get the picture upload to work these should be the three areas

    A description of the location is

    4.3 Between a line drawn true North from the seaward extremity of the Western Breakwater at Staithes (Lat. 54o 33.81’N. Long 000o 47.35’W) out to the three mile limit and a line drawn true North East from Sandsend Ness (Lat 54o 30.76’N. Long 000o 40.40’W) out to the three mile limit.

    4.4 Between a line drawn true North East from the end of Filey Brigg (Lat 54o 12.91’N. Long 000o 15.25’W) out to the three mile limit and a line drawn true East by South-half-South from the extreme South end of Filey sea wall (Lat. 54o 12.41’N. Long 000o 17.10’W) intersected by a line drawn True North East from the coastguard station at Speeton (Lat. 54o 09.37’N. Long 000o 14.48’W), out to the three mile limit.

    4.5 Between a line drawn true East from Witter Hole (Lat. 53o 58.46’N. Long 000o 11.77’W) out to the three mile limit and a line drawn true East from Spurn Head Lighthouse (Lat. 53o 34.49’N. Long 000o 06.65’E) out to the three mile limit.

    Hope that works, Sorry for the lack of detail but its the best I could do.

    Cheers
