Must be a good mate to only
Must be a good mate to only keep two for yourself
Im not sure what the rule book says but I know you need a license to "catch" them but if it says you need a licence to be in "possession" of Crays then maybe you might have a problem... But I highly doubt that would be the case... 9 times out of 10 they will check you at the ramp when you have retrieved your boat anyway

That is fine to give him Crays to take home..
just as long as you haven't broken any other rules such as total pots pulled and or amount of Crays not exceeding the 24 daily limit.. And tails all clipped
I've spent half my life fishing.. The other half I have wasted..

One licence allows 8 Crays
Should be ok once on land but spoze it depends if fisheries officer is hanging for a feed of Crays.

saulty , NO he cant be
saulty ,
NO he cant be booked
so long as your licence is valid, pots are legal bait is legal , tails are clipped at landing , & crays are legal to take he doesnt need a licence to posses them once there landed

hang on!
im not with him , he has left the ramp and is on his way home,question could be asked how did u get them {mate gave them to me!} do you have a license? no! ,say he had 9 in his possession ? reason i ask back last century LOL, fisheries had two vehicles blocking wanneroo rd. perth side of two rocks and searched hi & low for crays ,i was well & truly in the clear because i was beach fishing & on my way home from lancelin, think they must have got a tip off not sure,always wondered, another time we were going to lancelin lady in a ute going opposite way had flat tyre { said no im ok thanks anyway }we stopped to help anyway , noticed wheat bag chokkers wriggling realized they were crays ,she was very quiet didnt want to talk ,chainged the wheel, we looked at one another & then she was on her way,if the same were to occur think i would do differently

isn't it just the same as
isn't it just the same as transporting fish fillets.
ie you can have up to 20kg but don't need a fishing licence.
so you could have your limit of crays but havn't fished for them.
surely not illegal to go to Kalis buy your crays ....throw the receipt away in a bin in freo then drive home.
wondering about it now years ago working on one of the rigs in Dongara...got stuck up there for xmas went into town and bought 100 crays for all the rig crew.....is it illegal to transport that many ?

not if its commercially
not if its commercially caught and you can prove it with receipt-which you would definitely need as the tails wouldnt be clipped either

i remember that road block
i remember that road block fisheries had, was near the ocean view tavern, if i remember correctly they were after abalone. they removed my spare tyre, pulled all the seat covers of, pulled all my golf clubs out. i remeber this because it was a sun morning and i was on my way to golf all dressed up with golf shoes on and they still stripped my car. first and only time ive seen that before.

yes he absolutely can
yes he absolutely can possess fish/crays ashore without a licence.
He's questioned? "Ive been out with my mate Joe Bloggs, he gave them to me. Here is his number, ring him"
Luckily (though individual officers would maybe like you to believe otherwise) they need to prove you have done wrong.
If you are not bullshitting there is no problem, even if he has less than 25 (possession limit?) ashore and can account for them.

not via commercial transport
not via commercial transport unless they are commercially caught.
But you can get someone to take them.

Whole
Regs say that they must remain whole until ready to be consumed, so cannot remove the heads until you are ready to cook them

NUMBER OF POTS
Gentlemen,
I was going to go down to Fisheries and ask, but, you blokes sound like you know what you are talking about so....
I have 4 pots and two sons, with whom I'd like to pull those pots. However, both my sons work FIFO (on different swings}, can each son pull the same set of (two) pots - both have licences, but, I assume I can't put two licence numbers on the same two pots?

Computer
You age is registered on their computer when you sign up for your licence and on your gear ID on the floats plus you must have the card with you on board

What I was saying was how
What I was saying was how would a fisheries officer know who produced the license. Especially if their ages were close. There is no photo on the card, you don't need to produce photo id to get the fishing licence or rec skippers ticket and you don't have to carry your driver's license with you on the way to the ramp.

I could theroretically do
I could theroretically do that with my boys, they both have the same 3 initials and are only 18 months apart. So if one doesn't come out the other could for the pull of 2 pots. They both have licences btw.
Love the West!

It wouldn't be that hard for
It wouldn't be that hard for there to be one licensing agency in this state with all licenses having a photo on them. Would save on administration staff and allow more compliance officers in the field.

Thatd be way to clever.

Hmmmm....
Thanks gents.
I'll go down and ask the question (of Fisheries) and let you all know what the response was (although, I can guess...lol).
Billy69, I'm almost tempted (ALMOST but not quite)...lol.
