I don't know how reputable this is but the link was sent via a politician so I would assume they have checked some facts before release.

If at all true it does add weight to the sceptics camp....of which I am one! That the science community has a vested interest in perpetuating the global warming "myth".

Have a decko at this ( probably old news by now)....
Looks like someone has been caught ....errrrrr.... manipulating?

Fishing Licence Yes Or No
Nov 24, 2009 - 2:47 PM - by supa29
Since there seems to be a difference of opinion on results of surveys, here is a simple one want QUEENSLAND fishos to vote,
  • yes. for fishing licence and control of this licence in the control of sunfish, government, eco, or any one else.
  • no for no licence.
Simple, no long comments we already got that going on another thread just yes or no in ten words or less.
lets see what everyone thinks?

i will start. NO.

What are your thoughts on the idea of a General Recreational Fishing licence ?

What are your thoughts on the idea of a General Recreational Fishing licence ?

If In Favour I suggest we would model it on the NSW example along the lines of :-

1) ALL money raised goes into two transparent Trust accounts – One for Freshwater ( taking over from the current SIPS program – This would be kicked off with a minimum of the average funds raised under the current SIPS over the last 3 years as a starting guide for allocation ) Plus a New Saltwater Trust – where All remaining fund would be held. No funds can be spent without written approval from the management committees.

2) Administration costs to manage the program would be capped at 10% from License contributions – This employs government staff to administer & manage the program.

3) The 1st priority would be to establish a selection of Recreation Fishing havens ( RFH's ) throughout Queensland in Key recreational angling areas IE: Great Sandy... [Read More]

THOUSANDS of fish have been reported dead at a lake at Beachmere near Bribie Island north of Brisbane.
Reports were made to the Moreton Bay Regional Council earlier today and officers from the Department of Environment and Resource Management are heading out to the scene.

The lake is on council property at Biggs Ave, Beachmere.

Mayor Allan Sutherland will hold a press conference shortly.

Sunfish to push for rec licence ?
Nov 13, 2009 - 8:33 PM - by chilli
Why are Sunfish pushing for a Recreational Fishing Licence in Queensland ???

I have heard that they want to assist with the introduction of a rec licence. My take is that if they can do this, they will receive more funding from the government.


Has anyone else got any further info on this as it doesn't sound like the morally right thing to do.
