Yeh done very well in the past :lobster:

, but the last few years didn't really put a great deal of effort in as the hotspots were getting flogged and the numbers weren't there. next year might try a bit harder to be in the right place at the right time which is generally when the water starts to drop from the monsoon, I have filled buckets picking em off the causeways when they are on there march into the upper reaches. Will try and find some old pics of previous hauls :mrgreen:

So as i recall there is no limit on redclaw, at one stage i think it was talked about but didnt make it any further than that. So what does everyone think should there be a limit on our local yabbies? Personally i do whether it be 20 30 40 or even 50 for one catch, not hundreds which are numbers im hearing of recently, my mother is a culprit here i remember her throwing the net countless times down at girraween and pulling in a big black ball of them in her cast net. I never thought about it then but much concerned now as i've talk to her recently and she claims catches are no way near bigger as they use to. Ofcourse they wouldnt be with people absolutly raking the stock with your cast nets. How many actually throw back the females? Honestly i think there should be a law even if the limit states i high number one that people might not possibly meet at times, but as long as there is a law implaced it might give others the incentive to limit there catch.

tell me what you guys think. like to hear opinions on the matter.
