barramatt Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Jewfish are such great sportsfish and table fish but only over 80cm to 1m. The small ones taste rubbish. The size limit for Jew of 55cm is stupid and is only in place because of commercial pressure. If you keep them under 75cm most of them have not even had a chance to breed. Keep taking the small ones before they breed and big Jews will be a thing of the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you are a just voicing your opinion here --- but the the poster has provided us with a good report, great photos and information. I think it's unfair for you to criticise his catches when they are all obviously legal I am a little jealous of UNTAMED skills, but he's inspired me to try beach fishing again, although I hate it!

spaners Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Nice Catch there mate... But if you keep taking all those small Jewies (under 80cm) there is less of a chance in nailing the mother of all JEWS. What happened to the photo of the tarp with 20 plus Jews on it?
