Gone fishing day apply to Crays?
Submitted by oz74 on Sat, 2017-10-14 20:54
Anyone know if the "gone fishing day" and not needing a Rec fishing licence to catch fish tomorrow, also applies to Crays?
eg, can three people go diving from a boat tomorrow and catch 8 Crays each if they don't have a licence?
cheers

Yeah I'm just not sure- it says you don't need a rec fishing licence, of which a cray licence is a rec fishing licence.
none of the info on the fisheries website is specific about not needing a "rec fishing from a boat licence" and actually says that the exemption for the day include from a boat.
It's all
a bit ambiguous!?!?

Applies to crays
Fyi
Spoke to fisheries at ramp and applies to Crays as well. So you don't need a licence today to take Crays. Obviously bag/ boat/size limits still apply.
