You can help to make a difference by spreading the word about the wastage of fish resulting from
the crazy system the various levels of the commercial fishing industry are compelled to work under.

In the following post is a copy of the message sent to ALL the political parties standing for election
in the 2014 general election.

Please take the time to read it then view both the video clips & the FishFight website.

After doing so if you are unconcerned about the situation then do NOTHING.

However if you share our concerns for the future of your fishery please copy the message & paste it
to an e-mail then send it to EVERYONE in your address book urging them to do likewise.

By helping to get the message out there in such a fashion you will have helped to make a HUGE difference.

Thanks

Who are FishFight = A group of concerned citizens opposed to the current system which if allowed to continue
will lead to to the decimation of OUR fisheries.

Our mission is to make the general public ( voters ) fully aware of just how dire the situation is.

To this end a company has been formed ( see att. ) & the relative message is about to go viral via the media
& a campaign of e-mailing etc.

We have a nonpartisan policy as to aligning with any political party but invite all parties to read the information
below & decide if they wish to include the issues in their forthcoming election campaigning.

We are not opposed to commercial fishing per se rather the system they are forced to work under & in particular
the huge waste factor which is reflected in the price NZ’s are forced to pay for fish that belong to THEM but more
importantly will lead to a loss of our heritage ie our right to be able to catch a fish as a recreational activity.

The FishFight Website which has recently been constructed & has a lot more yet to be added.

http://www.fishfight.org.nz/

Please note FishFight NZ method of operating is modelled on the Fishfight UK which was highly successful in
gaining HUGE support from the public & realising their objective of bringing about change.

Below videos from Maori TV outlining the situation however is merely the “tip of the iceberg” of the destruction
taking place every day in various forms too many to mention.

For request more information regards just how serious the situation is, please record your interest to :-

[email protected] or http://www.fishfight.org.nz/

Regards FishFight

Motto = “OUR fight for YOUR fish”



::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::


PS :- please visit the websitehttp://www.fishfight.org.nz/ & if you agree with our concerns please add your name to the petition next ( this is the important part ) copy & paste the above message to an e-mail to forward on to EVERYONE in your address book requesting the recipients do likewise.

Let’s get the message out there !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is anyone able to make the links "alive" as they were in the original post ie so as clicking on them opens up relevant site.

It would be much appreciated if someone could do so as besides being IT challenged I don't have time as am busy packing for a week away fishing in a much warmer climate.

A separate copy & paste would be fine.

I will never get the hang of puter talk as it works fine on your post but not on my original despite removing or resoring the slash!

for once we have the tools to make a difference,
we can vote better, even if its for this election only, because National are not about to loose...

a web site to illustrate the goals we need to achieve,
show the destruction caused by Trawlers,
killing of our future stocks,
the undeniable dumping of fish either discard or Super Market,
same size limits for all....
i could go on for ever but lets stick to the achievable first,

you have know idea what we are up against in this fish fight,
Governments backed by Fishing Companies,
independent millionaires willing to fight tooth and nail about cost to the industry,
share holder demanding $$$$$ who dont give a rats ass about our fishery...

it go's on and on, were up against the scum of the Earth who are not willing or careless about tomorrow,

they will come from all parts of the woodwork, believe me anyone making money from our fish, have either been forced to fish unsustainable, or can not make a living from it unless they cut corners,
we cant blame them all, some that own their own Quota can make a living but those that have to buy Quota have only one alternative and that is to fish unsustainable,
the little guy needs a hand,
but first we need to Vote make a difference this year....
