Man the bay was dead.....
fished with a buddy and all we had to show for was some very little snapper and one barely legal bream that went back anyway. drifted along sans souci, fished the pilons at cook and ugly, both drfiting and anchored up, fished 2 hours either side of the high tide. used SP (tailor killed that idea), prawns both peeled and whole and whitebait. Just could not get any decent fish. Ran out of ideas and called it a day Was a bit of a demoraliser after a couple months no fishing. Better luck next week I hope Jack -------------------- ![]() |

It does not exist any more as it was known, it has been demolished and a shopping centre is being built where the co-op once stood. The pros now opperate from a couple of freezer contailers. Not many of the pro's working much any more. -------------------- Frank

It happened here 2 years back frank
Wun of the pro's fushing out of sydney tried putting a couple of BFT through the markets as Big Eye Tuna & got busted. Not certain of final outcome but I believe he avoided the fines argueing that he tought the fish were Big Eye. Now I dont fush the club scene any more haven't done so for a decade or so & I'm not into National Records etc any more either I'm only mentioning this to make it clear I dont give a rats ass about the records I still hold wun being for a Big Eye. Wot pissed me off with this pro is that he also fushes with an ANSA club & tried lodging wun off those fish's in as an Australian Record. Personally & I'm sure every wun will agree with me when I say that Pro's shopuld not be elligable to lodge fush in for records it's uinfair to all the weekend warriors who dont go off & sell their fishy's to make a living from it. He got knocked back any ways cause the fush was a BFT -------------------- ![]() Save The Fish, Eat a Pussy |

Yeah i know the boat "kilara" well frank i was there when she came into port also the first keggers were caught on Mr Hooker paul blacka's boat a 36 Blackwatch...
Bermi co-op is still operational out of that little container and im pretty sure is going to occupy one of the ground floor shops at the new development in bermi which is going to be cafes and resturants. Most of the pros still operate out of bermi most have gone up to ulladulla and kiama to follow the fish and are sittting in those ports. -------------------- Of all marlin species the pacific blue is KING.

Are you guys sure it is illegal to sell Bluefin, i was always under the impression that it had a quota on it at $4 a kilo going to government, but they were permitted to sell it, i know one longliner got 160 fish the other night, if it was illegal for them to sell it why would they catch that many? Just asking.

Just asking. Kamil. Not illegal as such but it depends on the actual licence a pro holds, and they are subject to quotas. I think you may know Tunaking, he is a pro and I asked him. Very complicated issue, too hard to explain here. This post has been edited by nimrod: Jul 14 2009, 01:13 AM -------------------- Frank

Are you guys sure it is illegal to sell Bluefin, i was always under the impression that it had a quota on it at $4 a kilo going to government, Only a handfull of licences are given out & the licencee's can only catch wot's allocated on their quota's A ordinary LFB licence does NOT permit ewe to catch/sell SBT's I've made a comment in another thread that I've never caught a SBTcaught just about everything ele Many many moons ago when I started fushing the rocks was around the time the SBT were virtually wiped out of Aust water thanks largely to the like of Dean Lukin's boats back then they used helicopters/spotter planes to find the schools then the nets did the rest. It's taken 3 decades for the SBT to bounce back to any no's & size so they are still off limits to LFB's unless you have a permit to fush for them, those who dont face a $1000 per kilo fine -------------------- ![]() Save The Fish, Eat a Pussy |
