Why do we need rules?

Fisheries rules are in place so fish can be caught in a sustainable manner and provide benefits to the Tasmanian community. Having fair access to fish for themselves and future generations is important to all Tasmanians.
Ignorance of the law is no excuse. There are guides and rulers available to help you understand Tasmanian fishing rules.
If you break fisheries rules you risk large fines, your fishing gear can be taken and for serious offences you may go to jail. If convicted, you can be banned from fishing and it may affect character references for your visa or residency.
