Have your say! DPI response form 2007
fello ausfishers,
THe Queensland government and DPI has bought out a questionnaire form on what we think about the following:
1)bag limit size
2)size limits on fish (not all fish species mentioned)
3)sharks and rays
4)dugon areas for netting closures
5)netting for rec and comercial users
6)numbers of spotty mackerel and taylor caught by commercial fishing
I got this form from the local tackle store but i like to have my say on the views above..... just a heads up people! I'm passionate about my fishing and like to have a say on the future of the recreational and commercial fishing.....
P.S. im not a tree hippy:grin:
cheers Marcus (BD)

Thanks Bigdonk, can bet there will be plenty of tree hippies filling them out, just like they do do with the recfishing questionair now that it has nothing to do with it being an honest and random crossection but one that is easily used and abused by radicals to skew the data toward tree hugging hippies and aginst recfisherman, will suit the DPI mindset down to the ground.

C'mon fnq, even one as cynical as you knows how these things work...
It doesnt matter about the legitimacy or accuracy of these questionnaire's as long as the protocol is followed.
Afterwards the spin will be that the consultation process with the fisherpeople of queensland was a resounding success..and that the new(probably already predetermined) plan will benefit us all .
You know it and I know it ...it's just a taxpayer funded wank.

He he, Me Cynical, I don't understand...do I really......
The RIS is associated with the New Inshore Finfish Reg's and Changes.
50% of Qld rec fishos wont get a copy or couldnt be bothered filling one out.
20% will get a copy and that will be as far as it goes.
30% will actually get a copy and return it.
And not all in DPi have the mind set some of you think.
So now its up to you, wether you like or dislike the changes, or have something constructive to say.
So dont whinge some distance down the track, when these changes are in force that you dont like them.
regards
So exactly where do we get a coppy of this questionare.
Come on chaps..... there are more of us fishing types than tree hugging hippies... so we had better get about it and out number them.
cheers
There was a bit about this in the Courier Mail yesterday (I think).
The article listed some of the proposed changes to bag limits and MLL's and even with my very limited knowledge, I didn't think the proposals were too bad actually.

I agree with most of the changes and can see that 6they can contribute to long term sustanability of our fisheries unlike the draconian restrictions touted by the EPA.
I would like to see Bream MLL up to 25cm but have been told that it would cost the CQ pro's too much to change ther nets. Perhaps a phased in change over 3-5 years would work

Ther is a good reason to keep bream at 230mm..... because it is the same a whiting and a couple of other popular fish and has been at the 9" mark for a very long time.

here is where it all is.

How many spotty mackerel and taylor do the commercial guys catch each year? How could I answer that without knowing the answer to that question? More importantly, how many people will answer a question like that without knowning the facts?6)numbers of spotty mackerel and taylor caught by commercial fishing

I've downloaded & printed my form & i'm half way thru filling mine out....I'll post mine.
I like the idea of hard coppy, a real person has to handle it and read it......I think they also have to respond.
who else has done theirs.
cheers
