So much fun. We got a few at the break wall at the port of Brisbane this week as well. Seems it is still a very healthy fishery.
Thanks for the post Daryl. I'm heading to Minjerriba on Sunday. I will throw a few slugs around and see if they are there.
Its an interesting fishery that's for sure, where I am (around tweed) last year was great, the year before not so much.
From what I see most of the fish from choppers to old breeding size greenbacks are kept, I only really know a few fellow fishermen who let the majority of their fish go. It will be interesting to see how its managed and sustained over the next few years, maybe some things like the size limit might change (https://www.fishingworld.com.au/news/call-to-increase-legal-length-of-tailor-in-nsw) to keep the stock up. hopefully its handled well as tailor are definitely one of my favourite fish.
