Act now to save the salmon

I REFER to the report by Anne Lucey headlined: ‘Board calls for unity of salmon interests.’ (Irish Examiner, February 10).

In it, the South West Regional Fisheries Board is quoted as saying that around 50,000 fish were caught commercially in the South-West and around 30,000 were caught on the rod by anglers.

They claimed that the anglers wanted to reverse that situation “so that they can get more of the resources”.
