The info drive earned positive feed backs from the residents and some fishermen were able to air their concerns regarding the illegal and over-fishing of some commercial vessels who are unauthorized to do fishing activities in their shoreline.
Among the issues raised were trawling and dynamite fishing using advanced explosive. Accordingly, this illegal method of fishing leaves the small fishermen with nothing more to catch.
The Coast Guard personnel advised the fishermen to put the concerns in writing so it may be submitted to the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) which oversees this sort of activities.
