You can’t always get what you want: fish, sensors and fishermen
Fishing is an important recreational activity in Trentino with an estimated economic impact of approximately €1.5 million per year in seasonal and daily fishing licenses, without considering revenue generated by equipment, participation in fishing tournaments, hospitality, etc. In this region, angle...
