Hi all
I know a few of us enjoy pelagics and seeing albatrosses is always a highlight.
Some ex-RSPB / Birdlife folks have a project seeking donations on kick starter,
to get a device called the Hookpod distributed into fishing fleets. The Hookpod
has been proven to reduce the risk of albatrosses & diving seabirds being
caught on fishing hooks by encapsulating the hook until it gets well below
water.

I've no involvement other than I have pledged some money through kickstarter
myself. If anyone else is inclined to help that would be great.
Thanks Russell for permission to post :)
Cheers
