The weather gradually warm, unwittingly it is time to go out to catch seafood season, many fishing seafood to count the most popular Pipi like, but before catching must be clear about the local government regulations ah!
Recently, two more Queensland people have been punished for catching more Pipi, and some of them are really no bigger than they are.
According to reports, after the arrest of more than 3500 Pipi, two Queensland people were fined A $8000.
According to Queensland`s government, Pipi`s catch is limited to 50 per person.
In June last year (2017), after they were arrested in Teewah Beach, north of Noosa, they were fined a total of A $8000 at the Noosa District Court.
Fishing minister Mark Furner said many people said they suspected the two men would sell the Pipi, on the black market. He warned people not to break the law and that if they did something wrong, the consequences would be serious.
In detail, every year, people ignore laws and regulations and overcatch for excessive profits. Last year, more than 14000 Pipi were seized by fisheries managers and released back to the sea.
14 diggers have been fined in just a month since the fisheries authorities imposed a requirement for Pipi fishing on December 1, 2017.
Fishing officers also had three male divers in arrest near the Kennett River on Christmas Day last year. They allegedly caught 17 small abalone and the three were fined A $1745. Earlier, a man in Victoria was sentenced to four years in prison for illegal fishing of 255 Roe's abalone fish and fined A $ four hundred thousand.
Another two men in northern Western Australia illegally fished 405abalone fish, with a fine of nearly A $1 million plus four years in prison.
Not only abalone, but also in Western Australia, seven fishing boats illegally caught lobster, each with a maximum penalty of A $ four hundred thousand plus four years in prison.
