Not long now, we leave this arvo. Just a couple more quick questions. When it comes to bag limits is a canoe considered to be a boat? Also, are bag limits a daily thing or a total possession thing? For example, let's say I have the best fishing of my life and bag out on more than one day (incredibly unlikely), can I come home with an esky full of flathead fillets, or squid or whatever? Also, if It's possible I plan on entering a river from public land and paddling up it to try for Marron. Is this legal? And what to use for bait?

I'll have to do some Google mapping then, unless I can find out where that "secret spot" Kelvin went to is.☺

Thanks for that Underpants. Looks like Santa needs to bring get me a yabbie net! When you say "legally access" are you referring to private property?

Hi all,

I've been lucky enough to score a discounted holiday to KI over the Xmas holidays and I'm wondering if it's worth taking the canoe for fishing and anywhere particular to use it? Also, am I allowed to catch Marron, and if so, where and how?

Thanks.

Wow!! So many different opinions on this subject. Asked at work this morning and it was 50 50 in each camp!!

Well surprisingly I caught a bream today at west lakes, let him go though coz more people have told me they wouldn't eat any fish from West Lakes or the Port River. I don't mind, I'm just happy to paddle around and catch and release for now, once I get the canoe decked out a bit better I'll go after some keepers.

Well the maiden voyage was a success, the canoe went well, although all those weirdos that were 8 to a boat with no fishing gear to be seen going back and forth were a bit annoying 😜😜 Thanks for the heads up, I didn't see any signs about not eating stuff though. What about the fish (making a huge assumption that I'll actually ever catch one, pretty ordinary fisherman😊) can you eat them?

Morning all, about to take my recently refurbished canoe for its (and my) maiden voyage. Just gonna a have a bit of a paddle around in west lakes to get the hang of it, might wet a line while I'm at it. Is it true that you can get blue swimmer crabs in there? Not taking a net today, but just wondering for future expeditions.
