live bait at Borumba dam

[frankieJ]

hi guys
I'm going fishing at Borumba dam on tuesday and i intend on using live long arm shrimp caught in the Brisbane area as bait. Is this allowed? or does it breach translocation laws?

Hi Frankie,
Should only use bait collected locally. ie at the spot you're going to be using it.

Cheers,

Fitzy..

thanks fitzy

i'll have to take them up dead, could save embarrassment.
my son and i were up at borumba dam beginning of the school holidays. we saw and spoke to an old local who was catching
sartoga using long arm shrimp with good success. thought we would go back and have a go.

See "bait for the fresh, where and how" post in this section for some ideas on where to get shrimp for Borumba.
