hi mickey, i think supersquid is saying that they managed to convince fisheries they only had 4 rods each.
i imagine it would be quite hard to prove someone had more than 4 lines on a very busy pier. I know at flinders pier people put out lots of handlines and then walk away! i snagged one and the "owner" appeared from about 40 metres away...if i was a fisheries officer he might have turned the other way! <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':woot:' />
