Yes serious, they are normally $45-60 per kg here.purple5ive wrote:are you serious man?? pics or it seriously never happenedfrozenpod wrote:Local supermarket has fresh fillets of KGW $110/kg, flathead $106/kg and fresh mullet $80/kg.
Makes fishing for a feed of fresh fish cheap.
No pics I pointed out the price to my wife which is all the matters in justifying the cost of boat, fuel, tackle ect.

Re: Fresh fish prices
Still netting, only Corio bay is closed atm. The buyout wasn't going to happen for 8 years.4liters wrote:I guess they haven’t quite stopped the netting yetpurple5ive wrote: This is my local fish market ...
PS most of the snapper are caught by long liners which are not part of the buyout.

Re: Fresh fish prices
Long lines catch 99% of ppb commercial Snapper and are going to continue beyond the 2022 ban with potentially even more licences issued.4liters wrote:I guess they haven’t quite stopped the netting yetpurple5ive wrote: This is my local fish market ...
What? Didn't Raynor, Worstling, Kramer and Co tell you that? I wonder what vested interests stopped the facts...

Re: Fresh fish prices
Its much easier to justify hunting than fishing on a cost basis in my experience.
No change out of $1000 after servicing the boat and updating some fishing tackle, then after buying a ramp pass, some bait & fuel to get to ramp, all I have to bring home from the first fishing trip of the season is a few calamari.
Contrast this with the typical hunt, where above and beyond camping gear (which I had already) a fifty year old $200 rifle, some ammo and fuel will net me about $40kg of lean, organic, free range red meat most times.
