WA Fisheries have been busy in the Courts:
Submitted by Moking on Wed, 2022-07-06 12:02In the courts
Breaching the 10kg finfish limit cost a Melville man more than $4600 in the Shark Bay magistrate’s court recently when he was found to have 19.6kgs of finfish fillets at his campsite.
The abuse and obstruction of fisheries officers at Lighthouse Bay near the Ningaloo Marine Park in April led to a Great Southern man receiving fines and costs of nearly $3000.
Illegal mud crab fishing cost a 47 year old man almost $4000 in fines, penalties and costs in the Derby Court after his boat was found with undersized crabs and 10 more than the personal daily bag limit.
Illegal sales of rock lobster, as well as using excess pots and interfering with other people’s fishing gear, has cost a Cooloongup man more than $30 000 in fines and costs, as well as having to forfeit his boat and gear.

Silver sands / Mandurah
Submitted by straith on Sat, 2022-07-02 02:06Hey all,
New to the area and went for a toodle from silver sands up to secret harbour on one of these beautiful winter easterly days and noticed on the Garmin that everything from about 100 MTRS out to the beach is marked game reserve?? Can anyone enlighten me more on what the go is with that? Also seems pretty quiet boat wise here, is their any good weed banks local for squiddies and Geordies or should I head elsewhere??not looking for spots just a general idea of what is worth chasing, also thought I'd try a night mulloway trip sitting out back of the "game reserve" in the troughs behind the surf maybe?

Ruby snapper
Submitted by Alan James on Mon, 2022-06-27 19:25I've never fished for them so have zero experience. I'm off to Vanuatu later this year where these are known as poulet.
I'm interested in any feedback from others who may have fished for these especially those have used jigs successfully or unsuccessfully vs bait.

Tantabiddi boat ramp etiquette
Submitted by Boppo on Sat, 2022-06-18 07:11Hi all,
Last year was a bit confused with the order of retreival at Tantabiddi. Normally here NOR it is as the boats line up coming in but up there it seemed to be as the cars lined up to retrieve thus you could drop off someone on the ramp then go out a bit and wait.
Never seen it at any other ramp. Happy to do whatever just want to go with the flow
