Just took the time to read this story, great work Matt. Don't let the wrong doers bring you down, it just means your getting them scared that they can't continue their illegal cr@p.
Top work there and wish you all the best with shutting them down! :youbeauty

Matt,
you must be a nice bloke to allow negative comments on your expose of illegal fishing to affect you like that. The fact is that you had the principles to stand up for what you believe to be right and if more people did that we'd all be better off. It's all very easy to complain amongst ourselves about what is wrong, but it means a lot more when you stick your neck out and go public. The local paper should be well and truly in your corner and if not they should be taken to task for it. I like stirring things a bit and bombaard pollies and govt agencies with emails whenever the need arises. We should all do it because it's our democratic right. The fact that some drones are calling you names means you've struck a nerve. Keep up the good work and don't allow the wankers get to you. Remember this bit of advice my old Dad told me. "Only worry about the opinion of those whose opinion matters to you."
Cheers mate,
JD

Over the years I have seen a lot of worrying things happen, all the way from the use of square hooks to purposeful contamination of fresh waters.
Any attempt to place these abuses in front of the public so that they may be made aware of the problems so caused can only be highly praised and all or any support given to the person/s doing the revealing.
It is sad to see someone being personally abused for being interested enough in the welfare of our rivers and creeks and the wildlife that they contain so that our children and grand-children might be able to feel the thrill that catching a fish, and releasing it after a short tussle can give. I can still remember the first stickleback when i was six or seven. There has been a lot of water wet my lines since then, and for people to destroy this dream because of their greed is something that I cannot fathom.
More power to you Matt, and remember, sticks and stones may break your bones but names cannot hurt you
