    I have never seen such destruction of our fisheries like this…literally hundreds of undersized fish…thousands of bait fish and sting rays just layed to waste as these morons step all over them…well done TnT…thanks for showing the world that you have no idea how to sustain your fisheries…I swear I don’t want to hear a single fisherman in Trini complain about not catching anything…if this is the situation pulling sein you can just imagine the level of destruction those unregulated trawlers create…well yes fadda!! Smfh 🙄

      I totally agree. Not one person thinking about conservation, only to pack fish in their pockets and barrels. This video literally hurt me to the core.

      So upsetting, especially about the undersized fish!

    I love the interaction you had with the youths instead of just trying to run them off that was real humble of you, keep it up. I know this is what the village knows in terms of fishing for years now, no doubt pulling seine damages the seabed and kills alot of smaller fishes unnecessarily, nice coverage of the action keep it up.

    • @KoSMTT
      @KoSMTT  2 роки тому +1

      Of course...Them youths was reall vibes man...It is the traditional way of fishing for years...But it causes alot of damage and the by-catch is really sad to see...Hopefully in the not too distant future the method can be adapted to make it less damaging...Glad you enjoyed the footage!

    My boy put a jack in he pocket yes lol!! epic. Cool footage Kos. Everyone get a lil food to take home. Wish the net holes were a lil bigger though. Lots of smaller fish there.

      Yea bro! Men putting fish all over! I wish that as well...Was sad to see all of the smaller fish being trapped...But as you said everyone got something to take home...

    This has always been a way of life in T&T and as time pass our waters get more barren....Thousands of dead small fish ...makes things even more tuff for inshore fishing.

    • @KoSMTT
      @KoSMTT  2 роки тому +1

      Yes, it has been like this for decades...But it is very damaging...We need to have some changes made to sustain the fishery...But when...It is their way of making a living...

    KoS. The seine is one of the reasons why fish stocks in Mayaro have been depleted . I was born, and grew up there. I am now 66 years old.
    For over a hundred years seines have been straining the waters of Mayaro, destroying everything caught. At one time I could recall there were about six seines in service. Cham, Lee Ha , Borel, Nathan, DeGannes are some of the names I remember.
    There were never Government input to regulate the size of the mesh, nor were they regulated as to how many times a day the seine could be thrown. Aside from destroying the seabed, everything is killed. I remember one afternoon a school of over 500 stingrays were netted, They just hauled them up on the beach and let them die there, and be corbeaux food !
    We children would go behind the curved seine, as it was being hauled up on the beach. Small fish by the millions would escape through the mesh and try to escape back to the sea, passing through our legs !!
    As a boy, fish used to be caught by the TRUCKLOADS.....not pickuploads ! Four, five, six truckloads of Cavalli, Carite and Ancho when in season. They used to describe it as "Seine Tombay", in those circumstances. The smell of frying fish used to pervade the air for that afternoon. Fish like Herrings, Cro-cro, Sapatay, Cutlassfish, Catfish, Bannan, and others used to be left by the basketfuls for corbeaux to eat. No one wanted them !.......Today people are eating Crappofish !!
    I am really surprised from your video that that amount of fish is still being caught in a seine in Mayaro.......despite the Sargasso weed !
    Many Third world countries still use seines, as I have seen on UA-cam. And the catch is far worse than in Mayaro.
    I see you were doing your part.
    Thanks for the video.

      I agree with your view it's one of the more destructive methods of inshore fishing.

    • @KoSMTT
      @KoSMTT  2 роки тому +1

      Wow...That is an amazing recollection you have described there...I can only imagine witnessing the seine those days...Amazing! Seeing those quantity of catches and the size and types of fishes...We can only dream of those days now...It is indeed sad to see the level of by-catch still happening...The mesh size and frequency is definitely things that need to be regulated! Hopefully one day, the gov't will realise the importance of sustainability and put things in place. Thank you for your recollection...At least I have an idea of how things use to be! Glad you still enjoyed the video!

      A true account of land seine. I'm 74 and I went to Mayaro RC in St Ann's Road and when the conch horn blow the school became virtually empty. All of us gone for fish to take home and then back to school. Those were the days.

    Glad to see the community come together to help pull that net in.
    Glad to see you saved some baby fish and sting rays also KosM.
    With no regulations in Trinidad and Tobago anything goes which can be bad for keeping the fish population high. Keep them videos coming though. Those little boys were happy to see you. FISH 🐟 🐠 🎣 🐡 ON !

    • @KoSMTT
      @KoSMTT  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you! Glad I can bring back some memories!
      It was indeed great to see the whole community coming out! Great expereince!
      I tried my best to rescue as much as possible!
      We do need some better regulations in place tho...Bigger mesh size in the nets...Protected zones...etc...Hopefully one day!
      Those small men were real vibes yes...Glad I got to meet them! Thanks as always for watching! Fish oN!

    Seine fishing depletes the ocean to some extent. So many juvenile fish going to waste. What a pity.I was so happy seeing you throw back fish and stingray in the sea.. Had the pleasure of seine fishing in Mayaro, many many years ago. definitly hard work , and I was just there for the experience while on vacation.

    • @KoSMTT
      @KoSMTT  2 роки тому

      Yes indeed it can be a destructive type of fishing...Especially with soo much by catch. Hopefully it the not too distant future, it can be somewhat regulated. It is always a great experience to see it happening in front of you! Good times!

    Nice to see you putting effort into saving whatever rays and by-catch you find, one of the few times I was ever there to see this when I was much smaller, about 9 or 10 I’d say, me and a friend took it upon ourselves to carry as many cownose rays that were left up on the beach to die back into the water, from what I remember there were atleast 20 of them with the only casualties being one plus a small eagle ray we were too late for, glad to see the big guy back in the water by the end tho (pretty sure it’s a Caribbean whiptail if I remember right)

    • @KoSMTT
      @KoSMTT  2 роки тому +1

    @knightwise2 2 роки тому +4

    I can’t believe that so many small fish had to die in this process. In my mind all those small fish are the ones with the sea. Something has to be done about that fission that also secures the return of those small fish.

    • @KoSMTT

    Years and many years as a young boy we spend a week in Mayaro, and every morning fishermen pull those SEINE.That's a good tradition and culture to keep. Who ever in charge of the beach there should try to bury some of the seaweed.

    hell of a pull , dang.. argue with method all you like, can't argue with results though... use the little fish that you don't want for bait or food, use them in the garden or for ocean fertilizing, use everything, even the seaweed...

    This is one video showing the devastating effects that these fishermen have on the fish population. Imagine the decades of destruction. That is why in Trinidad you can throw a line and never catch a fish.

    I hope UA-cam influencers like KoS, Brett in Trini and Stifler who post vids out of Tobago use their channels to not only promote fishing content, but conservation as well…in TnT we have a sad history of destroying everything so please UA-camrs use your platform’s wisely…I watch everything you all post and enjoy your content…but edify the masses on the importance of preserving our local fisheries for future generations to come…talk about how long it may take a particular fish species to grow, maybe a minimum size to throw back and why…it’s super important so folks who watch your channel can understand as well…

    • @KoSMTT
      @KoSMTT  2 роки тому

      Yes Sir....If you have been watching my channel for a while now...You would know that I fully promote sustainable fishing and always try to educate the public on the importance of catch and release for certain species...It has always been one of my main goals to spread awareness and knowledge to practice sustainability to ensure our fisheries remain in good order for a long time to come! I will continue working to ensure that I play my part!

    this video shows why the fish stocks have depleted there. Uneducated greedy and dont know how to keep the resource thriving. all those juvenile fish died for very few adult fish. wonder why few adult? because you killed the bait stock and you killed the juvenile game fish in your greed. I feel sorry for you all. god bless

      there are ways to net fish that reduces the bycatch significantly with bellows tubes to channel them away..

      It was indeed heartbreaking to see all of the bycatch....It is the traditional way of fishing and means of living for many...But I really believe it can be adapted to ease of the loss and damage to the eco-system...It has to be sustained for those to come...

Put out some surf rods w chicken rigs. Use shrimp for bait, bet you could get on some of those sea trout/ salmon. I'll be blowing that beach up with some surf rods. Respects
