Don't lose sight of what we could have had imposed on us. Bag limit of 2, fee to catch snapper and closures.
Barry, you as well as everyone else complained about the data that Fisheries Qld. were using. Online monitoring by snapper fishers instead of whiting fishers or crabbers will provide more accurate data. We just need to make sure that this data is available to all of us and not just a filtered version.
Sunfish has enquired of the Minister and been assured that if the data proves what we have been saying about snapper stocks then the bag limit will be increased.
I would say there is definitely an election in the air, get your wishlists ready.
Judy,
Did BP & Sunfish agree to this management plan for Snapper on behalf of Qld anglers?
Cheers,
Keith
