That's cos you fucked it up

[mikee]

you mean the southern third of the south islands supply.

Commercial catch in the sounds increased 40percent since the ban and slot rule introduction.
net result no more fish much less for rec fishers and much more for commercial.

As far as I know no one is actively targeting cod in the sounds. Bt from personal experience with the silly slot rule lots end up dead (or in the shags) before you get your 2 as per the regs.
When the fishery is OPEN you cant even transit by road thru the effected area with more than 2 cod. ie if you go cod fishing in Kaikoura for the day you need to come home the back way. Come back the usual way and meet the fisheries guys at Rai and you are fuc&ed.

Interesting especially as the quota is the same, None of our customers are fishing it commercially either.
Last time we were in the sounds we returned over 30 cod that were either too big or too small to get 6 keepers for the 3 of us. Don't bother now unless the slot is closed and we are fishing out of Okiwi. The we can keep 3 each as long as they are legal.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, fresh flounder for tea tonight thanks to another forum member who sent me a text on Sat afternoon to the effect of "are you dumb enough......................." Well I was and after a wake up phone call, bit of rain some wind, and some motor maintenance on the way back in the dark (who knew there was solid stuff under the water).

We had a meal of pan fried flounder with salad and fries for tea.

So a big thanks to VC for the invite
