Fri, 2013-10-25 18:18

 Heading out for whiting this morning.. Got our 60 big sandies and 4 KGs was plenty of boats around for sure.. Fisheries were checking at two rocks so that was good to see.. The 2 boats in front of us got pinned, one for too many wrasse and the other for no fishing licence..

Maybe these wrasse keepers

Fri, 2013-10-25 21:26

Maybe these wrasse keepers are on to a delicacy we dont know about????? King wrasse meant to be eatable????? I couldnt bare the humiliation of having someone open my esky to find wrasse in there, I always make sure there's none of those big bloody scales on the deck before headin in, christ it's bad enough someone knowing I caught one let alone getting pinged for having too many in the esky lol

Wrasse

Sat, 2013-10-26 11:43

Last year they were a 30 limit this year they are moved to the category above 8 fish per person. This is all wrasse red white green pink brown doesn't matter what type or colour they are they are all in it. They are different from parrot fish but they are classed together. Why I've got no idea but rules are rules.

 Definately not part of the ban mate.. Like uncle said foxies are for sure..
