Hello everyone. Just had a question to clarify.
Victorian fisheries authority has a picture differentiating juvenile salmon from the Australian herring.
The minimum size for salmon is 21cm. Are you allowed to keep juvenile salmon that are >21cm?

Re: Juvenile Salmon
They are still salmon juvenile or not. So long as they are size you can keep them above size.

On size and greater than is ok to keep. Now my question is that it says 20 salmon and or hering, does that mean 20 combined or are we alowed to keep 20 of each???? Easy to get in trouble for this one

Re: Juvenile Salmon
Combined is together. If you catch 10 salmon and 10 tommy rough you have your bag limit of 20 for the day. They are from the same family. Same goes for squid and cuttlefish.Kenle wrote:On size and greater than is ok to keep.

Well theyre from the same family but not exactly the same fish, plus one has a size limit and one dont. It can be confusing especialy when combining them as total catch limit. Just putting it out there mate, thats all
