The Malta Ranger Unit recently posted on social media another case of illegal spearfishing at night, this time at Slugs Bay, limits of Mellieha
It’s the law. No matter how much spearfishing can be a selective fishing practice, at night with lights it is illegal. Same goes with spearfishing with SCUBA at any time.
