    Well it sems that Cod numbers in Celtic waters are booming.
    15% of the commercial quota goes to Irish boats, the rest to France and Britain.
    Irish boats are having to dump the lot.
    See full article in the Independant on line.
    I know its not angling but it is relevent.

    Good article. What a waste of fresh fish surely there must be a better way of dealing with the catch.

    For posting the link.
    As Hugh "double barrel" has pursued this with Brussels and we are in the EU then whatever is decided on discards would apply here?
