Were did you launch from ??
Okiwi or Havelock (Gun smoke)

You wont loose yr boat Cam
$200 fine "maybe"
Smack on the hand more likely if you plead dumb and not knowing etc etc (with kids on board)
Fillet it asap and stick down the kids togs or da Mrss...

Is it true - correct me if I am wrong
If you hook and boat a Cod - then release - its going to die anyways ???
Or is that just excuse rhetoric from a few hungry chaps that I know (including me :-(

Think you did really well Cam
Considering the Salted Bait - that I have never had luck with - but when shes all on it will catch - but I imagine that is not the case now/yet??
