Softy 2,991 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Really? i thought it was illegal for all types of fishing/burley. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brenton 637 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Basically banned just in crab nets or burley in massive quantities. cheers brenton Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any animal product is banned as "burley".Small quantities can be used as "bait" though. ie: mince as mullet mix etc.It is up to the discretion of individual fisheries officers as to "what" constitutes a small quantity. As fishermen, we rely on their being reasonable about this, and we hope we don't catch them on a bad day or in a bad mood, otherwise what WE deemed a small quantity could in actual fact be classed as an offence! :dry: :S Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Del 245 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 the things u learn.... i always thought land based animals such as red meat or chicken etc was banned for water usage as bait burley etc etc. whats target species for chiken?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yorke_angler 0 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 you can get a variety of fish from rapid bay jetty. tommies, snook, mullet, leather jackets, squid and if your lucky king fish. went there about a month ago and it was packed, but very quiet..only got 1 tommie which the cat thoroughly enjoyed, lol dont think theres any crabs around, the bottom is mostly rock I think.. bit of a tip, use floats on your squid jags, I've lost so many jags to bloody snags there. think rangers right about the meat thing, small bits on a hook are acceptable for catching mullet or carp.. definately a no no for crabs and burley tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ninja 0 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Chicken breast soaked in tuna oil, is a killer on Bream, and I have caught salmon trout on it also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
karlmeredith 3 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I was under the impression that it was illegal to use chicken or "meat" for bait of any kind and i found this on the PIRSA websitehttp://www.pir.sa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0007/68884/faq_berleying_april_2008_final.pdfin regards to berley or bait.

We used to go snorkelling on the old jetty and dive down the pylons getting all the jags and rigs off. Literally a bucket load one day!! Along with that, we used to spear heaps of snook under the "T" section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yorke_angler 0 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 yeh i bet theres heaps down there! was going to ask a diver if he could get them if he went back in but he ended up leaving, lost 3 of my best yo-zuris that day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
