My view....
For
those who are perhaps beginners will enjoy the excellent pictures
of many types of common fish caught (and few unusual ones!) that
should help
anyone struggling with identification.
The code of conduct is also worth a read to just freshen our ideas of what is right and wrong.
The DPI contact line to report any illegal activities is:
13FISH
or
133474
Handy to have in the mobile phone just in case you would like to help protect our fishing heritage.
