And for more fishing amazement, we use to eat these before we started protecting them. Not like those pussy little yabbies, freshwater lobster - yes that is a 10L bucket

Lol.. only just noticed Zen kicked started this thread back to life, and appears to be a really good thing. On the fishing front I am mainly freshwater, a bit of salt but doesnt really bring the "hunter" out in me. I think between us here we can get you well onto the path of supreme fisho Psylo

I prefer to eat them over trout actually. Biggest one I have caught was shy of 7lb, but mosly they are little fellas. The tassie ones are actually a different sub-species apparently.

If you knew some of the shit that has gone on at Bob's property from pro-forestry rednecks "tassie style" and how it has washed off his back, you would have an even greater respect for this bloke. He has a big set of balls, thats for sure. The bastards only succeeded in making him stronger.... the irony

Interesting haven't seen a blue one? - generally puple/lilac, they revert to red when the go weedy on roadsides. There are paid hit squads to remove the weedy ones... -

I suppose it is also worth noting the Tassies are bred for high yield in Tassie conditions and soil types..... I still think the allure of that distant place (particularly internationally) drives demand. Poppy varieties from the third world when given cutting edge agronomy/horticulture seriously pick up alkaloid content..... The control involved in tracking crops from paddock through processing is incredible. Every crop gets analysed for alkaloid content (sometimes across soil types within paddocks), and this in turn improves agronomy. This is especially for Tasmanian Alkaloids crops (which have the exclusive norman line), BTW there are three processing companies in the game. Be stuffed if I can tell the difference visually, I do somewhat believe Normans smell slightly different when baked in sun, but I wouldn't bet my nuts on it (confirmed normans). When they are grown on the hectare basis you can distinctively smell poppies from quite a distance. -
Now sorted... thanks mate

Anyone having kids chasing the short term "bonus style dollars" needs a tap on the head. And a hard one at that, to bring on a reality check.... as for an extra $10/week cost increase on average well that's just bullshit me thinks, it will be regional areas that are hit the hardest.The concept of a bribe doesn't work for me on this one. I will have to tell my son I spent the 100 dollars on scotch when he gets older to dull the pain of getting shafted. No bling for me

yep, we are fucked..... (sorry for the use of the correct technical term)
