  1. Hi

    Everyone knows that this situation makes no sense. Unfortunately,unless everyone makes their voice heard it will happen. From what I have been led to understand, the only way this can now be stopped is by Joe Ludwig under section 91 Fisheries Management Act 'exceptional circumstances'. For this to happen it will take a lot of pressure from all opposed. Send Joe an Email and ask him to stand up using the above Act. We all need to stand up for what we believe in these days as leadership is very thin.

  2. As i am not an indigenous Australian and most of us are not maybe we should all be removed from the environment. My problem with the greens is they just love to be extreme. You are right we do need some balance, that is why so many people have had enough of the greens.

  3. Was it 80kg, Was it 70.375kg, Was it 69.467kg, Was it 86.627kg who cares it has already been stated that the fish was not weighed. Its a great fish and atop effort on 15kg. If there was a bit less criticism of peoples estimates and more kudos for peoples efforts iam sure we would all get to enjoy more reports of big fish.

  4. Send it down our way, Between the oil refinery the sewage outfall,ICI chemisals & desalination plant

    I think it would be the first fishing positive we have had in years.You want to see the effects on

    sand movement check out the container port expansion there is a bit of sand being moved there at the

    moment Ahh Botany bay the birth place of the modern nation.

  5. Hello Roberta

    I take 7x1000mg fish oil in the morning & again at night & if it is

    a really bad day 7 with lunch. They work better than any prescription

    medication i have tried & the only side effects are good ones.

    Give them a go.Cheers j.

  6. Cool aquarium

    I am not smart enough to know the scientific principle behind it.

    They fill the upright piece of tank full of water put a lid over it hold tight

    turn upside down & remove the lid when it is under water, try it with a glass

    of water in the sink.

  7. Hi Peter, I had a similar experience some years ago of Patonga beach. We watched as a trawler was netting from one end to the other & wondered why the birds were going mad behind it all the time. We decided to get close & see what they were throwing out? They where sorting fish on their catch table & any under size

    fish were despatched over the side. Only problem was the means they were doing it. They were using a knife that hooked over into a 90degree angle which was whacked into the fish & then over the side to the waiting birds. This is releasing undersized fish, I don't think so. :1badmood:

    Regards Jeff

    The beach haulers in botany used to do the same thing release with a stick with a nail through it. You only have to see how much better the fishing in botany is these days to realise how much damage was being done.

    To be fair though some recreational fishers are every bit as bad as the pros just not on the same scale of damage. A couple of months ago we returned to hole in the wall ramp to find some knob had dumped four large port jackson sharks on the ramp. I still have the pictures in my camera its a pretty sad sight, Unfortunately anyone who saw the sharks on the ramp thinks we are mostly red neck cowboys that the fish stocks need protection from.
