Yeh, part of the High Risk Demersals, they "umbrellered" many species.

daily bag limits

Thu, 2010-04-15 13:22

hey Bodie, there are quite a range of fish inculded in the bag limit, others include foxfish, red snapper and many others. If you go to the fisheries web site you can download the latest regs, I laminated a copy and it stays in the boat. It has all the size limits as well as bag limits. have also done this for the south coast as its alot different to the west coast and will do the same before heading north in June.

Regards Brad

nah nah didnt learn it the hard way.. just been going through some print outs froma bloke i work with who is going to the abroholos for 10 days, and one of the pages was the daily bag limit cat 1 fish.

The only one i didnt know about was queen snapper, for some reason i didnt think it was apart of the cat 1 group.

Abrolhos bag limit

Thu, 2010-04-15 15:42

Can anyone tell me what amount of fillets you can keep after lets say a 4 day charter to the Abrolhos.

Is it 1 days limit or a total of 4 days limit ?  or is it something different ?

As I have read the specs on fish.gov but still unsure.

 

Thanks in advance

yeah rules changed quite abit and all CAT1 dermal fish are in the 2 per day limit except dhuies at 1 per day.
Pellagic CAT1 now have their own group and only 2 CAT1 perlagics allowed per day as well, billies only 1 etc.
A lot of people are going to still get it wrong, you got to read the regs on the www.fish.wa.gov.au every month or so to be safe!

cheers
