busted.

just seen a couple of guys get busted at Port Kennedy boat ramp this morning at 600.
fisheries were waiting at ramp when we pulled in and checked our boat catch. we had 0 again.
we then pulled boat out of water and were talking to officer about seized boats and what happens to them when he said that he needed to check this boat that was coming out of water.
he then looked in the dingy and pulled three 700mm pinkies out of boat.
its these people that ruin it for the masses.

roll the dice if you like but this is the consequences. I hope Fisheries get a successful prosecution and these turds lose their boat and gear.

Great to see

Unfortunately, all theyy lose is their little dinghy, imagine losing a big flash boat, but then I reckon people wouldn't take the risk.

Wish more law enforcement was done, not just on the water, but also on the roads etc

It does show a distinct lack of intelligence or complete ignorance of the law to come into a boat ramp during almost peak cray season time and not expect to be checked by fisheries.

Yaaah go Fisheries

Wed, 2016-11-23 15:01

The news of these sorts of bastards getting caught just gets better and better.

Hope they lose the boat and gear, it is very sad to see this sort of thing going on, particularly after the good news post of the snapper breeding school on the surface posted yesterday.

I hope the story makes the tv news and the daily paper or at least the local rag.

You never know when, you never know where.

Well done guys of the Fisheries compliance section.

 The culprit now has nothing to do with IPC and has not done for the last year or so. The IPC ute was just a parting gift to him. Its a long story and nothing to do with us.

IPC Ute - Involved in Fisheries Bust

Mon, 2016-11-28 12:21

To all concerned personnel,

Please note;

I can 100% categorically confirm the vehicle and the individuals who have been caught carrying out illegal fishing practices have no business or social ties to IPC.

IPC are presently trying to locate the vehicle to remove its business name from the door panels.  We are also hoping it has been impounded as the vehicle had been de - registered by IPC and the plates handed back in over a year ago.

The vehicle may have been re registered under a new name or not at all.  We do not know at this point.  

IPC does not condone and will not support any individual carrying out illegal fishing practices or any other activity outside of the law for that matter.

Mate, I have never done any business with IPC but I can imagine it would be bloody awful having your business name associated with this situation. I hope you get it sorted soon.

with the name & shame on forums ,but do agree with reporting of wrong doings to fisheries ,this seems to be a classic case of doing damage to {innocent }  laws are in place ,theyve been caught out, law needs to deal with it .

I call them about a crab trap

Wed, 2016-11-30 12:57

I call them about a crab trap at a local yacht club at 1630 yesterday. Had a chat with the fisheries officer assigned to it today and he said they have removed the trap, release the crabs and walked down all of the jetties and finger jetties and looked at everything hanging into the water.

Don't really want assholes who break the law putting extra limits on my recreation.
