    Guys. Its not an issue at all. Shes got maybe 50 kg max there.
    The bait start in June and finish around December. There has been all sorts of bullshit spun when we had 4 terrible seasons and then 3 bumper seasons straight after.
    Greed is couple tonne a season and I know people that catch or caught that in the past couple years.
    I don't sell my bait unless I fluke a haul more than I need.
    Some pensioners rely on a good season. If they get it good on them I reckon.

    Yeah - - quite right - - suprising how many people think the bait only come up the rivers in the whitebait season.
    All this over fishing talk is bullshit

    Yes the over fishing is bullshit and anyone that relies on the season as part of their income will tell you just that.they know how whitebait tick. I would be more inclined to think that the powers to be are pissed at people making a buck on the side,they don't get their share from all sellers.
    The day will come when baiting wont be a life style or pleasure,the pricks do not like that.
    Their so called rules are getting tighter,the pricks.
    The same pricks that want all none native game gone.
