bookwa Posted October 9, 2019 Author Share Posted October 9, 2019 Thanks blaxland I know the basic rules re gear and sanctuary zones but a bit unclear on territory limits. I.e was told canāt use traps above the bridges and canāt use dillyās in coal an candle but internet searches no help confirming or otherwise. Appreciate any help cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be worth giving the local fisheries a call to clarify.Ā 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
