Is It Correct to Use "Razor Blade" Nets to Prevent Fishing in the Lake?

 In winter, the water temperature is low, and fish like to gather together to "keep warm". This feature is a rare opportunity for fish lovers. Because fish gather in a certain section of the river, the fishing conditions are good, and a large number of anglers will be attracted in a short period of time. Dozens or even hundreds of people will gather on the river bank, holding "long guns and short guns" to fish together.

 

First, fishing in groups may lead to the rapid consumption of fish resources in a certain section of the river. When a large number of fishermen gather in the same place, fish are likely to feel pressure due to overfishing, and may even cause them to migrate or no longer gather in the area, affecting the fishery ecology of this area.

 

Secondly, when fishermen gather together, they may generate a large amount of garbage and waste, such as bait bags, cigarette butts, beverage bottles, etc. If these garbage are discarded at will, they are likely to pollute the river environment, affect water quality and ecological balance.

 

In addition, fishing in groups may also cause safety problems. Due to the large number of fishermen, the space on the river bank may become crowded, increasing the risk of accidents such as falls and falling into the water. At the same time, conflicts may arise between fishermen due to competition for fishing spots and mutual interference, affecting the harmonious atmosphere.

 

Therefore, in order to avoid various risks that may arise from fishing in groups, relevant management departments and personnel are also taking some measures to reduce the occurrence of such situations. ‌

 

On January 21, someone claimed that staff at Longquan Lake Park in Wuzhi County put a "razor blade net" into the lake, and questioned: If such a sharp razor blade net was put into the lake and an accident occurred, the consequences would be disastrous.
