Green seems to be a dirty word at the moment, how ever I proudly class myself as green (altho certainly not in the way the Greens polical party is) as I like many fishermen are happy to abide by rules that protect the very environment the utilise. The ones that dont or whinge over every common sense restriction are the ones that give rec fishing a bad name and make us a bigger target for Green fascists.
dont start me i d like to take a shotgun to this halk people that have absolutly no experience or ideas making rules wher good old mother nature fixes anyway . a drought on land is a drougt in sea this flood is better than any usless so called greeny. at least thers no a bag limit on greenies
not saying another word
Illegal due to 1 documented turtle death in 5 years...
If dillies are a real problem then I have no problem with some sort of restriction. I think a regulation that said that you could not leave them unattended would have been a better first step or that they be hard fastened to a solid structure.
ie Taking the kids down to a pier for a sunday fish and dripping a few Dillies of the side should cause no harm at all.
Of course it was just easier to ban them.

Witch Hat dillies are illegal but normal dilly are fine to use in QLD

There is a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot
I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges
Up here we Use Hussar as baits for real RED FISHS (SHSIIFDER)
lift dillies are fine, because they are not entanglement dillies. crabs just walk on to eat, and if you pick up they are effectively in a pop up bucket. drop it back down again and they can walk away.
Their only illegal if you get caught with them.

Hence my comment about the green FQ dills.
Knee jerk reaction to keep the greens on side.
Fisheries management in Qld is all about politics and not science.

I was a regular user of dillies/Witches hats (back in the day).
Unfortunately they do catch all sorts of non-target species and not just crabs.
Yes I caught Bream, Flathead, sharks, Catfish AND Turtles in them !!!
The Turtles survived but the potential for death was there.
Times are changing and the resource is shrinking, save it or loose it !!!

whitches hats dillies never bothered me, because they were never left
we would drop a string, and by the time 8 dillies were out, it was time to go around and check, and around and around - so yes, there was bu catch, but we always freed it.
bugger the argument of ghost dillies, they never get left long enough to be washed away or otherwise lost
AMEN!!!!!!
Alcohol doesn't agree with me, but i sure do enjoy the argument!!!
cragie what did you do leave them over night .....wake up and check your dillies . wasnt' after politics here . thank you all the rest
