occy potting rules
Submitted by mrwinta on Sat, 2014-08-02 10:16
Can anyone help me with where to find the rules associated with occy pots. I have read a few old posts and been on the DOF website but I can't seem to find it. Is there such rules on things like size, type, amount, location, weather or not you can create a string of them etc?
Cheers....

there has been some changes
there has been some changes with the allowance for using "traps" which I am not up to speed on.
But when I made up my old style pipe pots 2 years back Fisheries told me that there is very little regulations beside the bag limit.
No gear ID required and no limit on pots (as opposed to traps-not sure).
Dont take this for gospel though as it may have changed.

Trigger Traps
Here is some info on Trigger Traps http://www.fish.wa.gov.au/Documents/recreational_fishing/recreational_octopus_trigger_traps.pdf
Normal bag limits apply = per person combined limit of 15 for Squid, cuttlefish and occy. Boat limit of 30 combined.
Not quite sure on the regs for pipe/pot set up.
