Done. I made some recommendations about maintaining access along the urban rivers in the face of increasing development pressure and exclusions of anglers from certain areas.

Why does it feel like this is as pointless as the ray/banjo legislation change survey?... I don't trust anyone within VFA other than an actual fisheries officer

Done. I hope the effort by everyone involved turns out for the better.
My feedback is we need better boat ramps and ramp facilities, call me greedy and self centred but, ok I am. For the greater good I hope. Ha ha

Stupid really. Who lists garfish and squid in the slot limit question?????????

Do they want something like this?

Garfish:
min size 20 cm
Max size 22 cm. Fish over 22cm is illegal to keep

Squid
Shortest tentacle 10 cm
Longest tentacle 20 cm.
Squid with at least 1 tentacle under 10cm or over 20 cm is illegal to keep.

That shows there are clueless people out there taking surveys.

I think i saw toadie in the survey too

I said the same. New to Vic and live down on the coast with a 7m boat that’s got a tall T top, closest place I can launch is Clifton Springs or Apollo Bay.

Also said that I think things are getting too crowded out there...finding a quiet fishing spot is becoming a lot harder.

I’d agree with that. A lot of spots I used to go to and have the place to myself now usually has someone there.
