If the current one says no then maybe the new one will say it's ok..hehehe

Drive past it everyday as well....hard to keep on the road with your head doing the exorcist head twist on the way past looking at the boats

Sounds like you may have enough spectrum for a couple of groups with representatives from nth and south etc,its always nice to be able to refer matters to the group who has the most association with an area.

We all have to start somewhere when we go boating it just seems to the more cluey guys that

the less cluey guys don't seem to get any better at it somehow???

Education is a wonderful tool but how do you use it out on the water?

Throwing abuse (and sinkers) at each other is definitely not the answer but, I dunno what is?

Well, they do say variety is the spice of life and it's just been proven to me today

Started the day off quietly with a few small redfin on worms and yabby pieces while heavily burleying up for the

native fish which didn't materialise at the Dam that I'd heavily relied on

Change of Dam, change of luck: First cast, with a soggy bardi from the previous Dam, saw me fighting a nice

70cm Cod which stretched the scales to 5.4kgs and a very tidy scrapper indeed on 6lb line.

Deathly quiet descended for the next hour so, onward to the next Dam.

Second cast, with tiger worms, under a "waggler" quill float saw this cute little Silver Perch showing up for a

picture session before release.

A short while later and a beautifully coloured Golden took a liking to a Bardi grub offering and finally a hungry

catfish rounded off a great day out fishing the "sweet water"

so long as you don't eat the guts of the bream and mulloway you should be fine. the bioaccumulation of heavy metals and pesticides etc occurs mainly in the gills, kidneys and livers of fish and not nearly as much in the flesh. i did read one paper where the results showed a greater accumulation of chromium in the flesh.

still... wouldn't catch me eating fish from the lake or port

i gotta say i agree with some of rangers points, i also agree with yellowfins points! somewhere in the middle would be great.

i really think something does need to change in both areas of fishing the commercial and rec both need more people checking things and defiantly tougher regulations on the commercial catches as they are a joke atm!

with some of the last comments about parents having there hands tied, im a younger guy at 26. i am fortunate i grew up with rules from my parents so i do understand consequences for doing the wrong thing and have values and beliefs but the younger generation are stuffed because of all these doo gooders getting there way with parents not being alowed to punish naughty children how are they meant to learn wright from wrong...

i really dont want to know what its going to be like when i get to the age of 50 hopefully something will give between now and then but im not holding my breath!
