Check the fisheries website.
Check the fisheries website. 1 Dhuie per peson max 2 per boat . Bag limits would apply as per fisheries regs regarding Kg's etc.

Sure can
Sure can Roddo, KG's and flathead are in the same catagory, ( Medium Risk Species ) Wich has a combined limit of 12 fish per angler.
KG limit is 8 per angler, Flathead limit is 8 as well, but you can only have a combined bag of 12.
This is seperate to your High Risk catagory,
Tond take my word for it tho, get onto the fisheries site and check for your self .

Nearly 2 years
Nearly two years now ( i think ) .
There used to be boat limits of 2 bag limits per boat , as i see it now the only thing with a boat limit is Dhu Fish.
No offence roddo, just asking, you know you need a licence to fish for demersals and a ban comes into action on the 15th this month ? Im only asking because if you thought the bag limit was 7 high risk fish then its been a while since you have checked the new rules.
Pay's to check pretty often as they continue to change rules and bag limits offten .

yeah mate got a rfbl and yeah
yeah mate got a rfbl and yeah i know about the ban we only ever keep 1 fish each anyway so its never been a prob. i new the snapper had to be fifty now and only one dhu fish each 2 per boat but i am taking out different people to normal and they will prob want a few fish each.
cheers for the help i was more confussed about there is no boat limits on fish anymore apart from dhu fish. i guess its because you can only keep 2 high risk fish now.
