Size limit?

Is it up to 45cm now? And are you still allowed just one at over 70cm? As far as boat limits go, it's my understanding that each person (up to 4 people) is now allowed FOUR category 1 fish, so you can get your two snapper and two other cat 1's, which could be dhuies,baldies, tuna, marlin, mulloway, etc.

Aus it is 45cm now and still only one above 70cm.

Boat limit for 2 up to 4 anglers is 8 Cat1 fish. Limit for an idividual at ant time is 4 Cat1.

Goes up by an additional 2 for every angler over 4.

Has any one had a chance to get into the sound during the week just curious to see if there is any action out there?
