Tighter controls on Murray cod fishing
Posted on 30/07/2008
Controls on fishing for Murray cod in South Australia have been tightened to ensure the long-term future of the species.
Fisheries Minister Rory McEwen said the closed season for taking cod from the river would be extended by one month and bag and size limits would also be changed.
Under the new regulations Murray cod may not be taken between August 1 and December 31 each year.
