2 anglers with RFBL's = 2 cat1 (high risk) fish.

So if there was only 2 of you with RFBL's you were over your limit.

2 Dhuies max on a boat at any

2 Dhuies max on a boat at any time (1 per person) If there were three on the boat max of six cat one fish if you you all held licenses. As Snappermiles said you can fish for other species whiting, Skippy etc

you were at your baglimit

you were at your baglimit there. all 6 of those fish are cat 1 demersals which means if you all had your fishing from boat licence then you were still in your bag limit as you are allowed two demersals each, you can then catch like macks, ytks and tuna etc along with those but again only 2 each for pelajics. then other fish like tailor, whiting, mulloway salmon etc have differnt rules once again which you can get added onto your 2 pelajics and 2 demersals, if you get one of the little books you can see the fish that are cat 1 and cat 2 etc and the rules for them. easy rule is bottom fish your allowed 2 per person ( dhuies only 1 per person and 2 per boat, and blues one per boat max)
