Submitted by fisho-ron on Fri, 2010-12-03 20:54
need some clarification on a $100 bet....
as you do and get on the piss with some mates!!!!!!and the subject of fishing comes up...as always..
he says that wobbygong sharks are protected and i say they are not?(in the west coast region)
can someone confirm this with written proof as i have searched and cant seem to find anything in wrighting?
and no you can not share my $100!!!!he he
i have had someone agree with me but i would like to see it in wrighting to prove to my mate,,, hey, if i am wrong which is very possible, i will cladly hand over my $100 to him.
i have found the protected shark list in the fishing guide, but no mention of wobbys.
also i can not spell for shit, or is that the bourbouns blurring my vision????
thanks ron

Wobbys are not protected. Lots of people think that PJs are, but thats not true, they're just pointless!

You will not find written proof that wobbys
are protected. The regulations will tell you what is protected, not what is not.

Look up the western fisheries website. If its not listed on the protected species list for any region thats proof by disproof...ergo you win.

All sharks and rays are
All sharks and rays are commercially protected under Western Australian law. This regulation essentially restricts the retention of all shark and ray products by commercial fishing vessels other than those operating in the State?s managed shark fishery.
Relative to the area known to be occupied by O. hutchinsi, shark fishing effort (mainly demersal gillnet) is sparsely distributed and managed via time-gear input controls. The managed shark fishery?s catches and fishing effort are routinely monitored through analyses of statutory daily/trip logbook data and the fishery?s target stocks are subject to regular stock assessments.
The use of commercial shark fishing gear (large mesh gillnets and demersal longlines) is prohibited north of 26°30? S latitude to 120° E longitude off the north coast, which may include the northern extent of the species? range.
The use of metal snoods (gangions) is commercially prohibited throughout Western Australian waters (except for a small amount of demersal longline effort in the managed shark fishery and pelagic mackerel troll lines).
Recreational fishers are subject to a daily bag limit of two sharks per person.
This species is potentially protected in the following Australian Marine Protected Areas, Marine Parks and nature reserves:
Ningaloo Marine Park, WA
Shark Bay Marine Park, WA
Jurien Bay Marine Park, WA
Hamelin Pool Marine Nature Reserve, WA
Shoalwater Islands Marine Park, WA
Marmion Marine Park , WA

that all sounds good mate, but if it mentioned a wobby i would have my $100,

could it be possible that because of this
(All sharks and rays are commercially protected under Western Australian law)

Commercially protected
My taking on that is they are protected from commercial over fishing, doesn't say anything about recreational fishing.
There are four protected sharks species in WA and wobbies are not one of them
