50/50, that's fair and saves resentments/arguements

Would hate to have the angler take all the cash if it wasn't yourself ?? !! So 50/50 in my boat then everybody's wins

Re: Would you share your $10k fish with your deckie?
There's unwritten rules when fishing
Never leave a fisho in distress if his boat breaks down etc
Always chip in if a bloke takes you out in his boat
Share in the glory of the trip - this includes if a bloke gets 10 fish and someone else gets none the phrase "we got 10 fish" is the correct term because when you go out with others you are a team
If a bloke wins ten grand for a Barra then he didn't because you both won 5
A good sport knows the rules and no discussion is needed of the unwritten rules
if you can't abide by these rules then karma will just bite you
Just my two cents

^ what Got-none said
Fishing is supposed to be about relaxing and spending time with your mates. The $$ are a bonus. I would find it hard not to share

Hard to believe it's even a question that needs asking, you'd have to be a twat to think it's not 50/50 from the get go
fish are skinny, the ocean is fat

If you have to think about it, how would you feel if the shoe was on the other foot - your boat and someone else caught it - or someone else's boat........

Re: Would you share your $10k fish with your deckie?
No worries lads, guess my previous comment makes me a 'twat' and 'not a decent human being'... Some people love to judge others on how their opinions align with their own...
End of the day, the split really doesn't matter, you both started with $0 balance and improved from there, plus you caught a barra, so everyone is in front...

True... Not taking offence, everyone has their own opinion.
I pulled my figures out randomly, we did discuss it in a mates boat once with 3 of us, and we did agree that the lions share would go to the bloke who caught it... The leftovers would be split between the others lol...

I believe there have been at least 2 or 3 tagged barra caught by FFF members so far? It would be very interesting to hear from them the arrangements they made?

Not interested in past cases if someone has been disappointed. This topic will help people avoid future situations.
Smart to clarify the share before fishing in case the $1m jobby shows up.
Nothing wrong with an uneven split if agreed beforehand.

50/50 with my deckie however the funds are only to be used for future fishing adventures...i.e Fuel, Beer, Fuel, Beer, Fuel, Beer.

Re: Would you share your $10k fish with your deckie?
It all good to say 50/50 or shared evenly amongst everyone on the boat. Im sure a lot friendships have been lost for a lot less then half a million dollars or even 5k. If they don't pay up what are you going to do about it.
Can't even get some deckies to chip in for expenses let alone split the prize with you.
Greed is an evil thing.
Everyone signs an agreement to share before fishing with me

I feel sorry for the young lad that caught the first tagged fish at the Daly crossing. He wasn't registered so apparently a relative was and claimed the lot. What's your opinion on this one boys.
Pretty cruel world!!!

Re: Would you share your $10k fish with your deckie?
I reckon if i caught it in my boat id keep the lot but if i caught it in a mates boat id go 50/50 for sure. Owner of the boat has made the biggest investment to get you there.
