Notes: We approached the stationary panga inside the ZTA at 07:00 to get a visual on the activity and to fly the drone. We got visual of net pulling at 07:20. Security contacted the Chief of Operations for the Navy at 08:00. They sent out the interceptor (BR-40) at 08:40, they then got the fishermen to pull the remaining nets they had in the water and put back any live animals in those nets. They went back to port, they were given a warning, next offence they will have nets confiscated and be arrested (according to Ramon and the feedback he was given back from the Navy). There were 6 dive boats in the ZTA and remained there until 12:45.
