I have been checked on Tuross Lake and Wagonga Inlet on 4 occasions over the last 18 months. No complaints from me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No complaints from me i was checked at eden but have never been checked in sydney and if i was checked again would have no issue with it,it is just frustrating when you see people keeping every thing they catch whether it be undersize or over the bag limit for that species Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Incredible Hull Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 "A Dubbo man, 43, was sentenced to four months' suspended jail and fined $5324 after illegally fishing protected eel-tailed catfish and golden perch in Ewenmar Creek, near Warren" Why would you want to protect such a pest!
