15.01.2022 SE S Ts D::N D 2 B L As Repeatedly stated by SAFA, and continually emphasised by fmr MRFAC chair Graham Keegan, tags have never wo...rked as a fair method in Fisheries management. Tags are only used to "throttle" and "restrict" the recreational catch by stealth. Even PIRSA has now embraced this "reality" by announcing for the 2020 SE season, the recl sector only took 1.2% of the total catch (750kg), while commercials bagged out on the remaining 98.8% (61,000kg). The recl sector is entitled to 19%. All in all an absolute disgrace. Fortunately the persistence of Graham Keegan (SAFA), as the rec sector's only representative on the Snapper Management Advisory Committee saw commonsense and anglers' rights triumph for the forthcoming 2021 season. Mr Keegan (fmr MRFAC chair), is also saddened that the MRFAC's call to immediately shut down the fishery, when the banned was announced, rather than waiting, allowed the commercials to remove a further 100 irreplaceable tonnes of snapper. Unfortunately groups like RFSA refused to support the MRFAC push to save vital snapper biomass during this short interim period, and the "save our snapper" attempt was not accepted. , | | | Bag and boat limits for recreational anglers targeting snapper will be reintroduced in the South-East for the 2021 season. The move follows the failure of a trial program using tags to control fishing, with just 392 or 12.9 per cent of the 3030 tags issued in a lottery to recreational anglers used this year. Under the new system, recreational anglers fishing in the South-East zone will have a daily bag limit of two snapper and a boat limit of six. Those catching snapper will also face mandatory reporting of their catch on a PIRSA Recreational Fishing App. A total allowable catch (TAC) for the fishery has been set at 26,666kg, with the recreational catch set at 4800kg 2667kg of that for the charter boat fishery. Once the TAC has been reached, snapper fishing will be closed for the recreational sector. At the request of the charter boat sector, its catches will continue to be managed with the use of tags that will be transferable within the industry. The move follows a recommendation from the Minister’s Recreational Fishing Advisory Council (MRFAC) to dump the tag system and reintroduce bag and boat limits for the south east season that runs between February 1 and October 31. Snapper fishing remains banned in all other state waters until early 2023. Fisheries Minister David Basham said the new management arrangements would make snapper fishing in the south east more accessible for more people, while ensuring stocks remain sustainable. Anyone who plans on heading out to catch a snapper will need to download the Recreational Fishing App and is required to report any catches, he said yesterday. Former MRFAC member Graham Keegan, pictured, who is still a member of the Snapper Management Advisory Committee, said the tag trial should never have been held. The MRFAC warned the previous minister that harvest tags-style management was draconian and doomed to failure; it has failed every time it has been trialled in other states, he said.
