The smallest size of luncheon meat to be used is a quarter of an inch or one centimetre.

I think I would measure my meat in centimetres as 1 centimetre is half as big again as 1/4 inch.

Absolutely ridiculous!! It's a complete contradiction , you can dampen a small amount for use in a feeder so why not for the pole? I just don't see what possible harm or difference it could make really? I respect the fact that they want to look after their fish but instead of implementing silly rules maybe they should be having a word with the anglers that are trying to bend the rules in the first place! I've been a few times to this venue and have witnessed some awful things in terms of how anglers target the fish... Ie dumping in big pots of bait and then sitting there with heavy gear on pulling right through the water column at any indication to foul hook fish Image Image Image Image I was actually gobsmacked!

I totally agree with bait limits but the other list of rules are well over the top. If more anglers voted with their feet and boycotted these type of fisheries they would soon relax the rules. >:(
