****************************
December 1 is just a couple of sleeps away and many of the cod chasers have already geared up and have plan A, B, C and no doubt many more, set in place.
A friendly reminder from DPI/Fisheries that the cod season does not reopen until after midnight Saturday and they too have many plan A/B/Cs etc that include clandestine patrols to ensure that anglers observe local land regulations, size and bag limits and of course have a current fishing licence.
Have a serious think about these iconic Australian natives that have been under severe stress with current drought conditions and catch/photo/release (CPR) practices will assist greatly in their sustainability.
