Fillet possession limits
Submitted by Faulkner Family on Thu, 2022-05-12 15:48
Can anyone confirm that the possession limits for coral bay has now changed to 10 kg of demersal and 10 kg of palegic (skin on) or is it just 20 kg of fillets

OR
10 kg finfish fillets and one days whole bag limit.
but heres one for all the rule interpreters
had 2 different fisheries officers tell me
1. If you catch your one days whole limit in say the gascoyne - which is 5 demersals and bring back to Perth, where the daily limit is 2 demersals you are breaking the rules....cant find this anywhere in the rule book
2. Another officer told me thats not the case, as the zones are technically on the water.
glad to see how licence money is producing such consistent advice
and yes the Minister, whatever his name is this week, will get another letter about the trial

My whole point on
fisheries officers.( no dig intended) they have different views on rules . Not many give same answer .ask a question 2 or 3 different answers from different branches,Keep in mind they don’t make the rules, they also have trouble on interpretation on some fishing rules . Not many I know understand correctly ( in fishing community) . Not easy to follow , if it was easy wouldn’t be so many questions . Should be simple to follow and understand . Anyway good luck on your trip

By "bring it back to Perth",
By "bring it back to Perth", if you mean catch there and steam your boat back to Perth then yes you'll have a struggle getting that over the line.
If you have landed your fish in the Gascoyne region, then once landed it matters not a single iota what the "daily limit" is anywhere.
It is the possession limit that counts.
I'd have thought thatd be logical to anyone., like if Fisherioes visit your house and empty your freezer and ask "you must have caught those in one day"'
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO TELL THEM WHAT YOU CAUGHT EACH DAY, NOR DO YOU HAVE LABEL EVERY DAYS FISH ON YOUR TRIP AT SEA.
You can if you want but beware that if you make a mistake you have made a rod for your own back.
Give a man a mask, and he'll show you his true face...
The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.
Everyone's just winging it.

agree with all that
however, this was a dissussion about road
logical to you and me but not them
raised it with slackfishwest, who threw us under the bus with these new limits and they refuse to raise with fisheries...

Not just coral bay state
Not just coral bay state wide was supposedly just a trial for 12 months then get reviewed wondering if they have checked with the marine biologist that emptys the bins in denam to see if it can be lifted or not.

Geez, I hate to freakn ask
Geez, I hate to freakn ask but these rules are a complete head fuck by the wa govt and fisheries to read through.
Got a charter trip from Exmouth to the Monte's later in the year and returning to Exmouth.
What's the fish limits/possession that you can return with ? I presume 10/10 but worth asking you guys who may have done this recently.

from fisheries bag size and
from fisheries bag size and possetion limit explained:
* You may be in possession of 20 kg of fish fillets of any species at your permanent place of residence, or if you have participated in extended fishing tour involving overnight accommodation on a charter boat, provided the fish are labelled with the person’s full name, the name of the charter boat and the date that the tour ended.
