Status:
This is the original version (as it was originally made). Northern Ireland Statutory Rules are not carried in their revised form on this site.
Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Byelaws.)
These Byelaws insert a new Part XIX into the Fisheries Byelaws (Northern Ireland) 1997 (“the principal Byelaws”) (Byelaw 4) and amend Byelaw 2(2) of the principal Byelaws so as to extend that Byelaw’s application to Part XIX (Byelaw 3).
The new Part:—
1. requires any person who takes a salmon whilst angling during the period from 1st March to 31st May to return it immediately to the water from which it was taken without avoidable injury (except for the part of Lough Melvin in County Fermanagh, in which case the period runs from 1st February to 31st May) (Byelaws 85 and 86);
2. requires any person who takes a salmon in excess of two on any day during the period from 1st June to the start of the annual close season to return it immediately to the water from which it was taken without avoidable injury (Byelaws 87, 88, 89 and 90).
