Coitus Interruptus
Hi all
From my limited reading it is only the pink snapper and possibly the Dhue that participate in this most pleasureable experience during this closure period. I fully agree that if they want to let them do it in private we should leave them behind closed doors to create more. But I cant see evidence that all the other banned species perform this nuptial duty during the closed time.
Wouldnt it be nice if we could span the breaks according to when the fish is fecund (randy) species wise. Then a blanket would not be so bad.
More science is needed no matter how we hate that (I am a science minded critter) or else help me in my wrong ways.
Lets not interupt their coitus but let science get behind this and find out when they perform nuptials (for you youngster Bonk) and per species ban these periods.
Then all hell on Earth dont happen at the same time!!
Oh shit!
More politics.

Definately. However, I think that would be an idea way beyond the scope of any pollies we are likely to have. Cant expect a highly thought about, well backed up, effective solution from them..... apparently.

And how do you stop
And how do you stop interrupting Jewies and Pinkies whilst targetting Baldies, Queenies, Breaksea etc. It's just the way it's gotta be IMO.
The view expressed in this post is that of a self opinionated bullshitter and does not reflect that of this website, it's owners, mediators, other members or anyone else for that matter :-P

Spawning times.
The closure has certainly not been timed to coincide with major spawning periods for some of the high risk fish. But for a period of 2 months at least we are not pulling them out of the water.

There will never be a perfect solution
Unfortunately.
Otherwise we would have a very healthy fishery to enjoy.

let just
I think it would be good if we actually knew which specias are being threatend according to the governement if it has fins and swims its a cat 1 fish now. Almost shocked to see wrasse n whiting are not on the bann list.
