Abrolhos new rules

 For us in the Midwest, those who frequent the Abrolhos at least a small piece of positive news.

Demersal and pelagic limits will be seperate 5kg each and seperate daily limits.

This is in line with the push for alternative opportunities to demersal and that no one has raised concerns about pelagic stocks.

There may be more minor updates but the above has already been updated on the DPIRD website

Yes it is frustrating keeping up with it, but also be aware that people ARE working hard in the background to sort it out.

 It's quite clear they don't want people out there. Had the desired affect with a few charters cancelling future abrolhos bookings.
