With all these new species showing up and our usual fish moving, what’s the actual plan for us to be able to catch them legally? Like, if I start seeing a commercial quantity of, say, snapper moving down here to Tasmania, which we never used to get, what’s the realistic pathway for me to actually get a quota or a permit to target them without getting in trouble? It feels like the rules aren’t keeping up with the fish.
