Save your pennies Mr Welch

Restricted
A restricted licence is required by any person over the age of 12, but under the age of 16, who is operating a powered recreational vessel.

Holders of a restricted marine licence may act as master of a recreational vessel only if:

operating during daylight hours between sunrise and sunset;
operating at speeds of less than 10 knots; and
not operating a vessel that is towing a person, another vessel or object.
Once a restricted master turns 16 years old, the restricted marine licence automatically becomes a marine licence.

I’m hoping that when I turn 16 I’ll get my l plates and my own full marine licence as well as a boat and a car I’ve got another 2 years to save so should be good

Great catch. The snapper here at Lakes Entrance still haven't made a mass appearance. Two trips for two fish so far. Couple of flatties and a gummy. The lake is better the KGW just keep giving. I have a total from October to yesterday of 60 KGWs and a similar amount of silver/school whiting.

When do they usually turn up in big numbers down your way?

[re-tyred]

Should have been here late October, almost always by melb cup weekend. Charter boats aren't getting them with any consistency. So late arrivals this year

Water temp is still a bit low at 17* and it's not in any hurry to warm up either .
Pretty much what you would expect for
la nina weather conditions .
