how many rods landbased fishing

[hornet]

Enlarge and widen existing piers also build new ones that suit the fisherman.

They keep saying target 1 million but how about the infrastructure to support it ?

Two is plenty. I personally usually only have one rod as I use plastics or artificial jigs.

Go down queenscliff pier at this time of the year there are guys with about 8 rods each and take up half the pier and have no respect for the law whatsoever.

Funny you mentioned queenscliff, I always use 1 rod there for squid jigging and have done better than those with 4 rods + taking up so much space. I also get told off for casting in between them mind you they have 5 meters between each rod. I didnt travel over an hour to be told I cant fish there, I'm not tangling up with anyone and I'm not stealing their squid away from their lure I just catch more cos I work hard on the jig action. Inconsiderate and selfish fishos realy grinds my gear :down:

Depending on how busy the pier I am on is, and whether the fish are on the bite I will use 1, 2 or 3.

Though the rule book says a max of 4 is allowed... which is a bit much in my opinion. I do recall Fisheries will consider any rod/lines rigged ready to go (even if they are not in the water) will be counted towards that max.

its now getting in to silly season how many rods per person do you think landbased at a pier myself i think two is plenty for example brighton pier two people are allowed eight rods and space them out at aprox 10ft apart where they put there wood chocks in thats a fair bit of pier taken im all good only take the one rod and do okay but what about the mum/dad who wants to take their kids out when they have a good chance to catch a fishj

Just cast in between them . Wood chocks??

so when they put their wood chocks in are they saying they don't want you fishing between their wood chocks? probably a stupid question.

yep

That being the case l am with Bowl,just cast in between them.
Two people shouldn't be allowed to take up almost 100ft of space between them especially if there are a lot of people fishing.
