Can't find that rule anywhere on fisheries website. Down here they are a declared pest with
a no return policy

I thought that they are talking about banning the opera house style pots altogether:-? although this is still not a law as yet, I believe it is due to potentially come in as early as next February>:(.

However I have also heard that the banning of opera style yabby traps will not affect the dams around Brisbane;D (Somerset, Wivenhoe) as the Platypus (which is what they are trying to protect) doesn’t live in the dams it lives in the streams leading to and from them;).

I know at Maroon, I've caught a heap of red claw in shrimp traps...some really big ones too, so I don't think it will impact too much.

I heard redclaw are being caught presently in Maroon Dam , I don't know if there's any truth to this or just someone having a laugh.
