there will be fish for the future. The excepti<strong>on</strong>s are<br />
bait fish (pilchards, scaly mackerel, whitebait,<br />
anchovies and hardyheads) and feral freshwater<br />
species like carp, tilapia, goldfish and redfin perch.<br />
For bag and size limit informati<strong>on</strong> go to www.fish.wa.gov.au<br />

Some fish are totally protected because they are low<br />
in number, are under threat from overfishing or are highly<br />
valued by the marine tourism industry. If caught, they<br />
must be returned immediately to the water.<br />
