Problem I can see with regulating everywhere else different to the coast is it would flood our areas with even more people from away.
Like I said I dont have any great ideas but any regulation has to work for everywhere. Our season is iirc over a month shorter than everywhere else. Our weather and flooded rivers shorten it even more. A good thing. I seen a bit of bait in the river yesterday. I always see a fair bit after the season as well.
Apart from a quota for the commercial people or established stands I dont see how we can regulate it any more here. I dont think our whitebait are in any danger.
Taking the money value away from it may work but then you are screwing over heaps of people that have invested a heap of money in the first place with no way of recouping their investment.
I see it being a complete mess if this current government has anything to do with it.
