Old fishermen want to return to the old ways on Peipsi

Elderly amateur fishermen from Viljandimaa have drafted a petition regarding a new regulation affecting fishing on Peipsi Lake. The regulation requires fishermen to report their catches via an online system. The fishermen state that this new requirement discriminates against individuals who are not technologically proficient, particularly older individuals.

Concerns have been raised that those relying on traditional methods may find themselves only one kilometer from the coastline on the border water body, necessitating retraining options. The change impacts fishermen accessing Peipsi.
