That sounds kind of weird, was there an official notice there? Netting is also a kind of fishing. :S

Must be new national park officers.Like Peace says,netting is part of fishing.In fact the use of nets is worst as the trap fish get killed by drowning more easily

No, not that type of netting. The type where you use a long pole attached to a net to catch fish.
