  • DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28
    DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 Minister’s message It is my pleasure to release the Draft Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 as the guiding document for the Inland Fisheries Service in managing this valuable resource on behalf of all Tasmanians for the next 10 years. The plan creates opportunities for anglers, improves access, ensures sustainability and encourages participation. Tasmania’s tradition with trout fishing spans over 150 years. It is enjoyed by local and visiting anglers in the beautiful surrounds of our State. Recreational fishing is a pastime and an industry; it supports regional economies providing jobs in associated businesses and tourism enterprises. A sustainable trout fishery ensures ongoing benefits to anglers and the community as a whole. To achieve sustainable fisheries we need careful management of our trout stocks, the natural values that support them and measures to protect them from diseases and pest fish. This plan simplifies regulations where possible by grouping fisheries whilst maintaining trout stocks for the future. Engagement and agreements with land owners and water managers will increase access and opportunities for anglers. The Tasmanian fishery caters for anglers of all skill levels and fishing interests. This plan helps build a fishery that provides for the diversity of anglers and the reasons they choose to fish.

  • Salmon Commissioners: Report for 1885
    (No. 36.) . 18 8 6. PARLIAMENT OF TASMANIA. SALMON COMMISSIONERS: REPORT FOR 1885. Presented to both Houses of P~rliament by His Excellency's Command. To Bis Excellency 8rn GEORGE CuMINE STRAHAN, Knight Commander of the Most · .Distinguished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George, Governor and Com­ mander-in-Chief in and oi,er the Colony of Tasmania and its Dependencies. MAY IT PLEASE y OUR EXCELLENCY. IN their last Report, dated 25th June, 1885, the Salmon Co.mmissioners had the pleasure of recording the great success of the then recent shipment of Salmon ova per Yeoman, that the hatching was nearly completed, and that the living· fry exceeded 36,000. The Commissioners, after mature deliberation, determined that it would be wise to liberate the fry at the earliest age, when their instincts would prompt them to !'eek natural shelter from their enemies. Acting upon this determination, when the fry began to feed,. the work of distribution was commenced, and upon completion 27,900 fry had been taken from the ·hatching boxes, ·a- result in the highest degree satisfactory, seeing that liberal allowances were made for losses from disease and from accident. The fish were placed in various rivers, view being had to those most suitable, and the distribution was as general-as the number available would admit of. This being the first distribution of Salmon Fry throughout the rivers of Tasmania,-the former shipments having been liberated in the Plenty,-the following particulars may prove worthy of record. On 18th August, 1000 fry were liberated in the Rivers Styx and Falls, tributaries of the-Derwent, River Der­ and on the same date 3000 were set free in the Derwent itself.

Pavuk Inland Fisheries Commission Tasmania 2 HISTO RY OF THE FISHERY The history of the fishery for whitebait dates back to at least the early 1930's. Significant commercial fisheries began in the south in 1941 and in the north in 1943, and licensing of the fishermen by the Tasmanian Fisheries Division was introduced in 1944. Production was always greater in the northern rivers, probably because these rivers have shorter, shallower tidal reaches that make access to the fish much easier. From its start in the early 1940's the northern fishery rapidly reached a peak catch of 515 tonnes by 1947 (Fig.

  • Report of the Independent Review Into the Tasmanian Floods of June and July 2016
    Report of the Independent Review into the Tasmanian Floods of June and July 2016 Shared responsibility, resilience and adaptation June 2017 This page is intentionally blank 1 June 2017 Honourable Rene Hidding Minister for Police, Fire and Emergency Management Level One, Franklin Square Hobart TAS 7000 Dear Minister, Independent Review into the Tasmanian Floods of June and July 2016 I attach my Report into the above. Yours faithfully Mike Blake Lead Investigator Foreword In this report of my Review of the Tasmanian Floods of June and July 2016 I note that, “… during this event it didn’t just rain: the rain experienced was extreme in the Tasmanian context and so the fact that it led to flooding was not just unsurprising, it was to be expected. These totals, that would be significant in any environment, were particularly so for Tasmania.” Also most evident was the need for me, as my team and I went about our work, to be very conscious of the benefits of hindsight and to regularly pose the question – “how might I have responded to these incidents at the time?” Perhaps in answering this question as we went along, I observed examples of entities that had learnt more from past experiences than may have others. While I am not saying this happened on this occasion, there is a risk with natural hazards like floods, that communities and emergency authorities forget when floods do not occur for many years, resulting in lower awareness and preparedness. Communities change and age and perhaps forget. We need systems that regularly test and constantly remind all of us without being alarming.
