Re: fishing zone restrictions
Except that's exactly what Dan the man said way back in mid March. The $1652 fine is entirely up to the cop at the time. You have to pass over a shitty little creek that doesn't have any possible target species in it, cop 1 who has some form of understanding let's you go the extra 8km to where you were going. The next weekend cop 2 says you have xyz creek right there you don't need to go to abc beach, enjoy your $1652 fine...Troy McLure wrote: ↑Fri Jul 17, 2020 9:55 amIf it’s left up to the cops discretion then it’ll be a dog’s breakfast. I went to Gunners last Friday, I won’t be pushing my luck now.

Re: fishing zone restrictions
Dan the mans clarification in todays update is simply day out vs popping out for some fresh air. just comparing obvious extremes. But its not obvious extremes that are causing the confusion. Common sense extremes are fine, but it doesnt protect you from some nitpicking copper who has had a bad day.
You could say that towing a boat to the bay is a day out compared to popping out for exercise, because lets be obvious it probably does take up half a day and a trip around the city to get there

would the desperate and dateless still take the chance and go fishing, or stay at home
this is literally where common sense will actually Prevail...
dont forget we already cocked it up once before, lets not do it again and make things even worse.
rather than trying to find ways to flout the rules, would be easier if people listened and did whats asked of them (as a temporary measure at least) to get us all through this ******* **** situation.

Re: fishing zone restrictions
The Herald Sun pointed to advice that now says “a person may only leave their premises … where it does not involve unreasonable travel or travelling to a place for an unreasonable period of time”.purple5ive wrote: ↑Fri Jul 17, 2020 10:11 amHow is that going to help anyone if they still have to travel long distances to do the same activity (exercise)DougieK wrote: ↑Fri Jul 17, 2020 9:59 amIf you wanted to fish Gunnamatta and were worried about getting spotchecked on the way there, buy an old surfboard and chuck it in your car.Troy McLure wrote: ↑Fri Jul 17, 2020 9:55 amIf it’s left up to the cops discretion then it’ll be a dog’s breakfast.

All you have done is spend money on a surfboard you do not need
“Unreasonable travel” is defined as travel within the “Restricted Area” to exercise or outdoor recreation where that type of exercise can be done closer to home.
