Great video mate and keep up the good work with your YouTube channel. Love your videos!
Maybe this guy can target the big stingray at Mordi. I reckon it's bigger than the one in Corinella.

What was the outcome / recommendations of the "Project Banjo" consultation? And why the focus on piers specifically? Is this a case of "out of sight, out of mind" when it comes to boat based fishing, then?
