Boys spotted fishing dangerously in Boon Keng despite 'no fishing' signs

Two boys were spotted fishing dangerously at Upper Boon Keng Road on Sept 24, despite clear 'no fishing' signs put up in the area.

Stomper Anonymous alerted Stomp to the incident and shared photos and a video he took at about 5.30pm.

He said: "I feel this is very dangerous, so I wanted to share. I hope the parents can see and take notice."

The video shows the boys casting fishing lines close to the water's edge.

They can be seen balancing on a triangular metal beam by the waterfront, with only a railing behind them and no safety barrier in front.

The Stomper also shared photos of the 'no fishing' signs installed at the location.

Those caught fishing in no-fishing areas may face fines of up to $3,000.
