I have no problems with boats and the speed limits..I cannot understand why standard 2 strokes are not permitted. If it is on environmental grounds then I suggest the same should apply for Somerset..get rid of some of those marinised car engines in ski boats. it is the same water once Somerset is opened.

On the lure lovers forum someone said that there has been people  in a tinny with W.O.T. and then another the same towing tubes around and an 18 footer on the plane.

I have just bought I boat to join the stinkers out there as I want to get up into the top of the dam..Hopefully its still open by the time I get up there and not closed down by these idiots breaking the law...

Any other people seen instances where the rules have been broken?

I haven't seen or heard of any others. Same as speeding on the roads, there are fines involved if caught.  C:-)

Why refer to other fishermen as Stinkers?

Sorry Dale, Its a kayaking term, please don't take offence and I apologise if I did offend anyone, Kayak Fishers call people that fish in power boats, Stick boats. Its a general term in the sport. So as of tomorrow I will be a stick boater too.


Cheers
