As a Kiwi and Māori, surly this should be illegal for all, no matter your ancestry! I mean Kēreru are banned from being eating no matter if you are Māori! It's either an all ban, or a seasonal ban for everyone; shit they should make it illegal to sell
Seeing Ngai Tahu Inc harvesting the spawning runs out of season, is SO disappointing. More so when it's then sold all over Town. This has a huge impact on sustainability, and ruins it all for future generations, regardless of if They're Maori or Kiwis.
I hadn't either until now. Greed is generally frowned upon by Maori - Pakeha too. Not sure about immigrant's. Haven't seen any immigrant's whitebaiting though.
They should be banning the sale of whitebait most are in it for the money and catch as much as they can get. Why is it the only fish you can sell it does not make sense to me.
We whites in New Zealand are descended primarily from English/British people, and we/they do not have a good reputation for respecting anything that gets in their way. Even the Irish and Welsh could tell you that.
@@ReiSpitz 100%. Not to mention they go on about settlers introducing pests etc when they were the first to do it when they introduced rats from Polynesia. Left to their own devices Maori would have ended up at the same destination. It just would have taken longer because they were far more primitive.
@@wally07and so called Europeans had taken them 2000 years to get her but it was Tahitian man that lead y here so who the primitive 1 plus Europeans brought the rats here stop trying to rewrite history
I’ve go no probs with the local Māori being able to fish longer than me in the whitebait season but when the local iwi are giving the permits too people they know are just catching it to sell it seems pretty wrong
As a average smuck i could boost the white bait numbers improve the soil, reduce the run off and erosion, improve the inshore fisharys. But the greedy and lazy cant see why greed needs brains and humility.
When is white bait season, now go and look at all the cars there with people fishing when it's not the time to do it in the face. That's the real issue. And how about a device that doesn't trash sea mounts( maths do that for recovery). If you got nylon meters ships nets fridges customers all over the country and make up the bulk of poachers then rights is a insult.
Maori have PRE EXISTING RIGHTS THAT THE CROWN HAS AN OBLIGATION TO PROTECT UPHOLD AND PROTECT AS PER THE ARTICLES EXPRESSED WITHIN THE TREATY OF WAITANGI. PAKEHA are not entitled to any of these rights as these rights pre existed before any British subject set foot on this land and are the exclusive property of tangata maori.
I have been an advocate for DE Commercialisation of the whitebait fishery in NZ for well over 40 years, Buy a licence just like Trout fishing, Limited catch per day with heavy penalties for exceeding catch limits, Pot nets only with no traps, Greed to make money is a huge driving factor in the demise of the whitebait fishery.
There is no Fairness in that. One people 💚 one Fair law
pretty sure it wasnt customary to onsell for massive profit.
also amazing how they use colonist nets and not traditional handmade ones

Over fishing is over fishing, rights or not there arent going to be any left
Just stop the sale of whitebait this alone will halve the problem

Go home where your from
Guys on permits catching 300 pound plus a day on the mak... makes a joke of this whole thing.

Ask the historians how good Maori were. No Moa left, seals confined to small area of NZ where before they were all over.... the list goes on and on.

Its not overfishing its destroying the wet lands thats where bait come from ...
Then help the farmers, make it just like any other enterprise.
Everyone with equal rights. No special treatment
Now u want equal rights😂
@@TR84609nailed it
Take everything from Maori and then NOW say oh we want equal rights, what a joke
You sound like those troublemakers that cry victim after getting punched on the face for being lippy 🤣
Customary rights to catch whitebait and then sell it.Maori are doing there best to divide new zealaners.
We've been separated from day one. You're selective
Good hope we’re divided
yet another way to segregate new zealanders.
Whitebait comes from the planet earths ocean we all should have a right we are all from the same place and we should all look after it the same way
I’ve go no probs with the local Māori being able to fish longer than me in the whitebait season but when the local iwi are giving the permits too people they know are just catching it to sell it seems pretty wrong
Something gets done when it's almost too late.
Look after our whenua and it will look after us for generations to come ka pai whanau🙏🏽

customary rights is racist against other ppls rights. were all equal and under same laws and regulations no special treatment.
Push those trespassers out.
