    I managed me 1kg this arvo. Some of the shoals were that big that my little scoop net wasn't wide enough and the ones on the side spooked off the net making them all spook. Need to get a bigger net I think

    Woohoo
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    When it is $100 per kilo retail, I am not surprised by this sort of greed

    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
