How'd u go off sea bird today sea kem? I seen you launch lol. I was catching dhuie bait off the beach because my bro in law bailed. Was gonna launch off ledge
But yeah we had a cracking day, few crays from the pots, Dhuie, Baldies, black arse and a huge Flatty. Back in by lunch, was a bit sloppy but very light winds made it easy. Come say g'day if you see us again.
Haha I was just fishing from the beach in front of pub with wife and kids and noticed your boat / launch method as you have shared on this site. It was like torture catching small sand whiting while watching everyone head out in there boats lol. Don't get up to seabird enough and fish ledge. Gotta try harder. Sounds like you had a great day. Yeah I'll say gday next time
Yeah few of the other boys were spewing up there as they'd gone the day before in pretty average conditions. The forecast was way out but I just took a punt and it paid off.
They sold on 4 occasions. To fisheries . Why where they not done one first offence? Still waiting on pro from mandurah long line for pinks . ( and caught) pretty quiet on that one ( bouvards)
Fisheries were probably milking for information on others operating in the black as well. For example we need X amount of crays but if you can't supply them.....who will?

Did I read it correctly

It's called "Milking"

Yep, much like drug cartels,
Yep, much like drug cartels, the police get involved and try to get as much information to see how high up the chain they can go.
Good to see a decent fine got dished out.

The magistrate said
The magistrate said 'theoretically' Dennis junior could have been fined $160,000.
Penalties included mandatory fines plus an additional penalty based on the weight of the rock lobster.
"I have to impose penalties that will deter them and others from committing similar offences," Mr Miocevich said.
He imposed a $31,810 fine on Dennis junior, an $18,035 fine on Dennis senior and a fine of $19,830 on Weeks.
The three were each ordered to pay costs of $780.70.
Mr Miocevich cancelled the recreational licences of the two men saying they had abused the right to hold a licence 'for profit'.
He did not ban them from holding a licence in future.
