    The harbour security found us eventualy, to disapoint us with the 30 metre rule that just made casting more dificult but not inpossable.
    I think i have attached a picture of a couple of fish.

    Sounds like a great afternoons fishing. Especially as it was your first time fishing there. Would it be normal to get that many Snapper from the river?
    I fished in a river in Adelaide (Port Adelaide River-I think.) just recently while on holiday there and, caught heaps of King George Whiting on two occasions while I was there. When I spoke to some locals they said it was very rare to actually get them in that spot. Usually they just got Mullet (our Pilch) and Salmon Trout from there. So I was pretty rapt. They wern't real big or fat but they were all legal at around 33-35cms. I was trying for a mulloway of course, even trying a KG as live bait but I didn't get a run while there.

    Couple of good sessions there.Is the 30 metre thing a Queensland law?Don't think there's such a rule in Tas.
    Cheers
