Lim noted that one of the fishing boats had already been apprehended in November last year for the same illegal activity.
The seized fishing boats were expected to be returned to their owners after they filed a motion for release, as “only the boat paraphernalia will be confiscated,” Lim said, quoting Danilo Larita Jr., fishery regulation officer of BFAR in Calabarzon .The government has banned buli-buli fishing since 2013 because it destroys corals, seagrass and traps, and eventually kills small fish.
